Well it could work out pretty well. Bubba finds the 'Summon Meanthing'
scroll. He scribes it into his spell book. He then makes other scrolls
from that spell and gives the scrolls to his fellow guild members. The
guild then has something secret amongst them. That could bring in all
kinds of other topics: espionage, spell collecting, spell marketing, etc.
New spells would be worth an arm and a leg. If a warrior found the scroll
he would have no use for it. If it is a new spell then he would be a rich
warrior.
Say an opposing guild get ahold of the 'Summon Meanthing' spell. They
could then saturate the world with the spell and take away Bubba's guild
secret.
Wes!
