Both Frank Miller's seminal *Man Without Fear* comic miniseries and the Netflix TV show adaptation touches on the critical training Matt received from Stick.

Though they both skim over the **how-they-even-met** part. 

So is there a clear explanation or a flashback in the canon that reveals how Stick knew **just when and where** to find Matt? 

Was there was some [Chaste][1] derived "*Chosen One*" type of prophecy that mystically led Stick to Matt? Or did young *learning-to-use-his-gifts* Matt do some amazing news-worthy feat that attracted the Chaste or Stick's attention?
