Sorilea didn't act like a darkfriend around Semirhage. She was insulted by Semirhage comments, and suggested to Cadsuane that they should kill her rather than imprison her. Yeah, maybe it's all a big act - but then, maybe Nynaeve is acting too.
It's obvious that Ishamael and the Shadow have given up on Semi (except to Semi herself).
The DFs we've seen are all very selfish. Even Alviarin is scheming to usurp Mesaana, surely. It's the only way you move up in Shadow society, by pulling down your superiors.
SorileaDF thus has motive to pull down Semi and has immunity from any retribution from other Forsaken because Semi was ordered not to be helped anyway.

A clue that Sorilea is a Dark Friend?

It's funny, but I know very few women (none) IRL who act like AS, but RJ definitely fits their MO

I don't think I've ever heard a woman actually "sniff" at someone either

My gut feeling tells that Sorilea isn't a DF
13/01/2010 11:24:33 AM

I don't think so
13/01/2010 06:02:40 PM

Actually it was very much like a DF

the thread started by pointing out Verin implies Sorilea may not be on the same side...

Actually, it's not about who stole it. It's about how Elza knew where it was AND

Not quite, IMO
13/01/2010 11:53:46 PM

and Verin told us that you could betray the FS if you could justify it

Elza already had the DB when she freed Semirhage from captivity

Sorilea never saw the wards unraveled. And I'm pretty sure they were inverted.

inverted yes, but she was standing right there when Cadsuane unwove them

As Sorilea closed the door behind the three of them, Cadsuane disarmed the box's traps.

The point was that Sorilea knew two key pieces of information from that moment

She knew only one, and that was known to Bair too...

How do you know Caddy embraced the source only then?

so you contend that she was walking around holding the Source the whole time?

I think Bsand or RJ stated that Shaidar Haran could not do that himself, which is why he needed Elza

I disagree that Verin would have tried to create suspicion or discord.

IMO either she or Bair are a DF
