I'm lost. No one knew that Wanda would attune to the pliers or what the effect would be. I assume that Wanda intuited or was somehow taught how to decrypt once she did attune but doubt that she had any inkling of their power before that.

I have to disagree. Panel 9: http://www.erfworld.com/book-1-archive/?px=%2F122.jpg

If he touches her with the Arkenpliers, she will attune to them instead of being killed by them. She knows it, and Ansom realizes that she knows something that HE doesn't and weirds out over it. You can see in panel 10 that he is actually moving the pliers AWAY from Wanda, to the other side of his body.
