OK, gotcha. Makes sense. So my example of the Mrs Beeton Grimoire was the
wrong visualisation of what was happening. I'm not just standing there
reading a Big Book, I'm using it to ask Mrs Beeton what to do next. And she
can only cope with one conversation at a time.
So, sorcery can do spells that last a very long time, right? Does that mean
the Grimoire is "engaged" until the spell is over?
