That doesn't surprise him - honestly, Loki having heard of a sphinx at all is a welcome surprise. He considers speaking more on the subject, but then the question is asked, and...he thinks about it for a turn or two as the music begins to wind down. It's a question he's only been asked once before in his life.

He doesn't dwell on when the last time was, but something in his face...changes. Just a little.

"...On occasion," he admits. "My Patron was more than fair...but there have been times when I wondered if I could have made it as a wizard if I had only applied myself more in my youth."
