[Well. He is momentarily too distracted to recall keeping you at an arm's distance and under close surveillance, Loki. There is something blocking his view, preventing him from seeing you snake and squirm your way into a favorable position.
What is that, in his way...ah, yes, the size of his ego. It happens a little more often than is desirable. Taneleer Tivan is about as old as most people guessed and even moreso (by millions of years), it's gotten kind of hard for him to keep things like this straight. Ooh, and getting him off topic with fascinating bits of his Collection really isn't helping his case. But that last mention of shapeshifting draws a very curious eye from Taneleer Tivan, a glance turned into a stare that, rather abruptly with a clap of his hands, transforms into the least graceful transition ever.] Yes. Well. I have been expanding my Collection and made recent purchases that should interest you. From a region in one of your people's so-called Nine Realms, on the planet Terra. Some artifacts from the mystical Kamar-Taj, a place that I've been growing much more interested in. As of recently.
A beautiful statue almost resembling a Makulan. Fascinating restraints. A brazier--that I have yet to identify the purpose of. But none of this has successfully satisfied my appetite for examining the realm further. [Namely to locate an artifact, of course. An object of legend that is said to control the flow of time.]
