- Compulsion that disappears on delving has never been seen or heard of in the series. It's pure speculation at best.
Its just variation on a theme. We have already seen weaves which dissapate upon contact with another weave (Rand & triggering the wards in Illian). And when it comes to channeling...everything is speculation until it happens. We didn't know that a gateway could be forced to remain open with another weave...until it was done. Either way you wanna look at it...its certainly not outside the realm of possible.
The most likely scenario is that whoever set the Compulsion was indeed balefired. To me the question is whether or not that was actually Graendal, since Nynaeve notes that the weave is different from the one she lifted from Kerb.
If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

So your name is Graendal....

I am now split with a 80% belief it's Graendal and 20% that it's Moghedien *NM*

It was heavy enough to nullify her ability almost completely by TGS

The lead up was clumsy because her death scene was rather forced.
