I really hope someone can help me out, I'm trying to remember the exact name of a particular figure of speech, and it's really driving me crazy. The figure consists in using the consequence, result, logical next step, etc. of the 'action' as a way of implying it without having to mention it at all. For instance:
"As she was staring at the halls for the last time [...], her beloved mother's shawl was showing the stains of mascara that she had always [...]" (I'm paraphrasing here)
... instead of saying 'she was crying'.
Thanks.
