Or is the bridge some kind of "link" that allow contact even if you are in the other side of the world?
When my spirits were conjured, they were conjured somewhere in Florida, I believe... I live in Missouri, which is more than 100 miles away, and my spirits, with few exceptions, were C3, because I have a recapture tray.
The moment they were conjured, LONG before their vessels arrived, I felt their presence. My gold dragon actually wrapped himself around my arm to let me know he was there.
When they're bridged to you, wherever their vessel is doesn't matter... think of it a little like this... they have a bond with the vessel for when/if they get tired, sort of a touchstone they can rest in to recharge or get away for a little personal time. It's also a map that allows them to find their way back to us from whereever they go when they're not here... like if they go to their astral places.
But bridging makes US the touchstone, too. They can ALWAYS find us... they have a bond with us, so that no matter where the vessel is, no matter what category their binding to the vessel, no matter what distances might be involved, they can and WILL be here for us if/when we need/want them, or even just if they want to hang out.
You can go on vacation and leave your vessels behind, but your spirits may choose to come with you anyway.
The only issue I see is if you leave your vessels in the charging boxes. I don't know about the lairs etc., but the
all in one charging boxes at least (don't know about other sellers' charging boxes, having only ever purchased from
) seem to... contain the spirit while the vessel is being recharged. I'm not sure why this is... I've looked over the spell they use to create their binding boxes, and I can't figure out what in the spell would make it act like a containment spell once you put the lid on...
However, if you leave the vessels in the boxes but leave the lids off, your spirits will have pleanty of energy and still be able to follow you anywhere through the bridge they have with you.
Hope this helps ease the confusion...
Brightest blessings..
