Vim spells work by altering the magical energies that create the spell as it is
being cast. The spell is the result of the combination of the base casting and the
Muto Vim effect, and has its effect once both the casting and the Muto Vim effect
have finished. This means that a Muto Vim spell must have a duration at least as
long as the casting of the target spell, but need not last for as long as the spell
itself. For normally-cast formulaic spells, a Momentary Duration is sufficient, but
if the casting time is longer for any reason, the Muto Vim spell must also have a
longer Duration; Sun is sufficient for any practical Ritual."
