That seems odd. Surely the one that gives you the ability to keep ought to cost more than the one that works only while you're within range of the person.

The temporary one might be an easier sell in your case, as you wouldn't be able to do what Varyon mentioned and copy down reams of information over several weeks - if you could use the skill only while the person was there, you'd basically get no more information than you would by just questioning them.
