if she touched it ONCE, she would require enough training to control it so or she would have died of OP sickness. Fact is her ability is so small that it takes all of her ability simply to touch the Source. Sorilea has more ability as we've seen her create weaves without actual effort.

Since she looks her age I suspect reaching it is almost entirely due to natural longevity

And countless hours of frustrated focus to--fleetingly--grasp the source ONCE (i.e. less than twice)
