That doesn't mean he wasn't subconciously afraid to do it. Gher Send a noteboard - 22/01/2010 05:54:43 PM
He wasn't thinking straight. He'd just come from a traumatic instance, he wasn't exactly clear-headed. And the plot needed him to not be holding the Power, because he had to get sick when he embraced it so he would leave and have his Dragonmount epiphany. So it's a plot device more than anything, although there are some explanations for it, if a little weak.

We've seen a few scenes were he actively avoids channelling Lord Haart - 26/01/2010 08:49:35 PM 458 Views
He couldn't be holding the Power already... Gher - 22/01/2010 05:14:54 PM 594 Views
There is no fear to channel in his thoughts, though. *NM* Etzel - 22/01/2010 05:27:31 PM 204 Views

Rand didn't expect such a strong reaction, though. *NM* Etzel - 22/01/2010 06:58:41 PM 209 Views
But it's obviously getting worse all the time darius_sedai - 22/01/2010 07:13:12 PM 486 Views
