Because my connection to the familiar is stronger when it is within arm's reach.The mere writing of spells onto the pages of a book infuses that book with power. Every page has a little saturation. The same way that a summoning circle has sigils/words written in the floor, thus making it a conduit of magic, so too are the Words a channel for that magic.Let me put it another way.Knowledge is power the same way that a rock sitting at the top of a hill is power. I take that knowledge and I do something with it, I take that rock and I push it down the hill. Knowledge is powerful because of how it is applied. However, that potential knowledge still is very powerful in and of itself, because it is latent, stored, ready to use.</blockquote>
