Hi, I have two gameplay questions about magic.

First of all, I've noticed Talia can cast spells even when her spellbook is not equipped, so is there any reason to leave it equipped instead of a shield?

Second, I've just gotten to the part of the game where I'm being offered guild memberships, and I would like to know if joining one magic guild excludes you from joining any others for the rest of the game.

Thanks!

I don't know about the spells, but you can only join one guild in the game. choose wisely

The spellbook is equipped to learn the spells, not to cast them. Once all the spells are learned, she drops the book, but until then, she won't learn any new spells without her book.

Okay, thanks!
