J Roberson:
] OK, all of us understand how w Lock grounding works. But a Quickening?
]My explanation is this: Even though there is no physical component at work,
]the Quickening holds open the gate between Astral Space and Real Space that
]powers the spell. When you attack it, the energy is channel through that
]gate EVEN THOUGH THERE IS NO PHYSICAL COMPONENT, and is thus able to
]manifest in realspace.

But - and here's the big one- what's the difference between an AOE and a
single-target spell grounded through a quickening?

My understanding is that there _IS_ no difference: the spell can only affect
the point the quickening is bonded to, and nothing else, and that the spelltype
must be physical, not mana.

Please correct me if I am wrong. I'd really like to get this down for sure.
