"Normal to be scared of it. Magic's powerful, and it's scary to think about channeling that power through yourself." Mat understands well. Even though he's more comfortable, he still approaches channeling with a healthy dose of caution.

Too easy to fuck up by being careless.

"But I'm doing alright with it. I am very decent at the things I know how to do. Have better control."

Which is the most important thing. Wilhelm is well familiar with Mat's magic when he isn't doing well with control.

"Istredd said something like...it's good to be a little afraid of it, because it means you understand how powerful magic is and you'll take it seriously."

Or something like that. He swipes a hand through his hair, cracks a smile.

"Well, he said it smarter."
