Wow, that was fast! I got an asnwer :)Chris Hosch wrote:
1. After succeeding at an adventure, I'm rewarded with a spell, which happens to be Bind Monster/Find Gate/Heal/Cloud Memory. Can I cast it immediately?
A player's turn does not end until he advances the clock. Unless specific timing is stated on the card, an item or spell can be used at any time during a player's own turn. Therefore, yes, you can use those spells after receiving them as reward for succeeding at an adventure.
Note, however, that Bind Monster changed slightly in the Revised Edition of the game. It now states: "After rolling, discard to defeat 1 monster." Therefore, this spell can now only be used immediately after rolling your dice pool.
1.2. And if I got the spell buy purchasing it at the entrance, or if I've won it by rolling for the lost & found, is the answer different? Can I use it immediately?
No, the same rule applies. Your turn doesn't end until you advance the clock, so if you get one of those spells at the entrance you may use them during that same turn, unless it has specific timing listed on the card.
2. Healing Stone reads "Discard before rolling". Does that mean I can only use it if I attempt an adventure? I can't use it if I decide to purchase something on the entrance?
Yes, Healing Stone (or any other card with this type of timing) can only be used immediately before rolling your dice pool. You cannot use it while on the entrance because you will not be rolling your dice pool that turn.

I actually had no idea the revised edition had an errata'd card. I thought the only different was the rulebook. But it's really good to know I can use Find Gate/Heal/Cloud Memory immediately.
