['Young' doesn't quite earn an askance look-- Raine's among enough centuries-old friends that, relatively, Zatanna does seem young. But by the same token, her students are younger still, and their power in some respects beyond the bounds of what was once considered possible.]
That's fair. Still, she's been here for some time, hasn't she?
[She's had the chance to experiment and hasn't gone completely mad with power, in other words.]
