Eh, who knows what their master plan is? But...I've been doing pretty well, actually. Trying some new approaches to training. Getting the hang of freezing things, at least. Not just bowls of water, either.

[While Mat's progress is slow, it's begun to be noticeable. Better control, more ways to apply the one trick he's comfortable with. Of course he's experimented a bit with other spells, but he isn't confident in them yet.

Still. For a change, he actually has something new to say, when asked about his channelling.]

It's all coming a bit easier, since last time I was whining about it.
