They're the only words Mat can think of to say right now, keeping his grip on Rhy tight. He holds him as though he can draw the pain out of the other man somehow.
Blood and ashes, it sounds awful, what he went through. Far worse than Mat's own misadventures in the mindscape they all share. Even without elaborating further. What's been said is more than enough. He wishes there was something he could do, something more than just words and standing here. At least Rhy can take comfort in him.
Mat doesn't even realize as his affliction begins to work itself.
"You aren't alone anymore, I promise. I'm right here, and we're both alive, and everything's alright."
Aside from the looming war and all. But here and now, in this castle, he and Rhy are indeed alive and alright.
