I was just skimming through a summary of "Matters of Honor" and it mentioned the scene at the end where Endawi delivers his report and then Morden appears after Endawi's left. They decide that none of the major races know anything except the Narn, which the Centauri have "taken care of."
Now, my question is this: surely the Shadows didn't think the Minbari would simply have forgotten them? Delenn does say that she's never seen a Shadow ship before, but the Shadows couldn't be assuming that the Minbari simply forgot everything. Especially as Delenn hustles Morden out of her chamber very quickly in "Signs and Portents."
And of course the Vorlons wouldn't have forgotten, and had already seen the Shadows at work: again, Signs and Portents, the famous encounter of Morden and Kosh. The Shadows were probably banking on the normal Vorlon reticence, but the Vorlons and the Minbari go way back. I'd think the Shadows could have put two and two together and realized they weren't going undetected.
