Elv 12???

I am confused about identification of the scrum half offside line, specifically Example b. Does this mean the defensive SH can only move between the back foot of her #8 and the nose of the ball on the offensive SH side of the scrum OR move back behind the new 5 m offside line? Is she allowed to come around the opposite side of the scrum? ELV 12 says "...the non-ball-winning scrum...must not overstep that offside line" but I'm not clear in which direction, ie. step over the line toward the offensive pack or toward her backline.
