Was it some kind of charm spell that affected Elayne and Nynaeve while meeting Moghedien?
It was Compulsion. There are many examples later in the series of the Forsaken using it, and even some of the good guys. Graendal and Ishamael use it a lot.

Okay, third time's the charm :) It's when they're running from the Trollocs and wind up on Domon's boat. The boom comes loose and hits the Trolloc. Later one of the crew gets in trouble, but he swears …
