Learning the spell, as I said above. I didn't want to talk about
designing a spell since that's a whole 'nother can of worms.

As Steve reiterated, you need _at least_ one success to learn the
spell (and design it, IIRC). There really is no upper bound on how
long it takes to learn a spell, since you could keep trying and
failing until your character died from old age.
