another pressing skyrim question that doesn’t really matter in the ultimate scheme of things:

when you read a spell tome to learn a spell, it’s destroyed in the process. ok. i get that.

but how? does it self-immolate? does all the writing magically disappear? does the entire book fade into hermaeus mora’s realm, never to be seen again???

inquiring minds want to know

i like how so far three different people have said “you eat it”. i’m pleased that this is apparently a collective explanation we have come up with in the absence of actual lore.
