![]() Upon reaching the White Tower he was almost dead from the dagger's blight, but the Aes Sedai broke the bond between him and the knife, almost killing him in the process of Healing. He journeyed to Tar Valon with Verin, Nynaeve al'Meara, Egwene al'Vere, and Elayne Trakand. He became bound to the horn: it will work only as a regular horn for anyone else, so long as Mat lives he is destined to blow it at Tarmon Gai'don. In Falme, which had been overrun by the Seanchan, Mat blew the Horn of Valere, summoning heroes from beyond the grave to fight for him so he and his companions could escape. In the beginning of the journey, Mat discovered that Rand was the Dragon Reborn, and felt even more estranged from his old friend. The journey then led them to Lord Barthanes' manor where Loial found a Waygate, and it became clear that Padan Fain had gone to Falme. He journeyed with Rand, Perrin, Verin, Loial, and Ingtar first to Cairhien, where Rand had secured the Horn until Darkfriends stole it back. Mat needed the dagger to sustain himself long enough to have the Aes Sedai break the curse. Later in Fal Dara, Padan Fain, a darkfriend that was chasing the group (and was possessed by Mordeth in Shadar Logoth during the chase), stole Mat's dagger and the prized Horn of Valere. ![]() This explains why he used a Manetheren battle cry before taking the dagger. On this journey the others also notice that he is able to speak the Old Tongue at a certain level, but assume that it is due to his Manetheren blood. Īs time went on, the dagger made Mat increasingly sick, as well as inflaming his paranoia and hostility. Unnoticed by Perrin or Rand, Mat picked up a ruby-hilted dagger which he carried with him on the flight from Shadar Logoth, not knowing that everything in the damned city was cursed, even the pebbles on the ground. Upon announcing this, Mordeth quickly reverted to his true form and vanished through a wall. After Mordeth led them to a room full of various treasures, Rand realized that Mordeth lacked a shadow. Heedless of the danger, Mat followed Mordeth immediately, and Perrin and Rand, unwilling to leave him behind, were forced to follow after him. While exploring, they met a man calling himself Mordeth, claiming to be a treasure hunter in need of help to carry a large amount of treasure. Mat takes Perrin and Rand to explore the city looking for treasure. On their journey, they stopped in Shadar Logoth to lose the Trollocs chasing them. He was led away on Winternight by Moiraine Damodred with his friends, and it was revealed that he, Rand, and Perrin were all ta'veren, the focal points around which the Wheel of Time weaves. He never understood how his mother always seemed to know what he was up to it never occurred to him that his sisters kept her informed.Ī joker and prankster, he can be very charming with women and people in authority when he wants to be, and is fond of drinking and gambling he also swears a lot. He seemed to compete with Dav Ayellin to see who could get into the most trouble. Though he, Rand al'Thor, and Perrin Aybara got into trouble quite a bit, Mat was generally the force behind it. The oldest of three, Mat was something of a black sheep in Emond's Field.
