Istredd keeps his hand there just long enough for him to feel supported, but he doesn't want to be the person passing physical boundaries, so he lets it fall after a few moments. It did seem to get Wilhelm to relax long enough to think through his offer. A wave of relief hits him when he agrees, this will be good for everyone who was worried, and Wilhelm himself.

"You don't have to start today unless you want to. We are going to do it in the Horizon, I will make us a new space. You'll never have to worry about hurting anyone in here. I've trained myself here, and you may find the power flows better through you."

It would make sense if it was a gift from the Singularity. Of course it would like people to use it here. It gives Wilhelm the safety of being able to let loose, and also to get sick if he wants to. They can clean that up with a snap of their fingers after all. Istredd already has some ideas of where to start.

"Once you feel more in control and confident in this space, we will practice in the real world. Our magic works the same here and there, so by then you'll have the tools."

His body may have the memory here, so the adjustment will exist, but it will be small. This is much more about mental fortitude than anything else. Confidence is key.

"I've been doing magic for over sixty years. I promise I can help you and I know you can do this."
