A Crown of Swords
The Figurehead
And what if she had still been here? she wondered. With the necklace off, and maybe whoever freed her? Shivering, she withdrew slowly. Moghedien had good reason to dislike her, very personally, and the only sister who could match one of the Forsaken alone, when she could channel at all, was in Ebou Dar. Moghedien could have killed Egwene without anyone noticing; even had a sister felt her channel, there would be nothing remarkable in that. Worse, Moghedien might not have killed her. And no one would have known anything until they found the pair of them gone.

I think the quote is specific in the highlighted areas...
1. Only Nynaeve can challenge the Forsaken. This means that Moghedien is out of Egwene's reach from her own PoV. Egwene is also headstrong and ambitious, so this is a blatant and remarkable admission.
2. Moghedien could take Egwene away and she wouldn't be able to stop it.
