Vex wouldn't begrudge Sonia seeking a better fantasy than the harsh realities of her situation, and its a simple enough question.

"I know quite a few human mages, if that's what you mean." And not just arcane at that. Head cocks to one side a moment, thoughtful. "Since there's no magic here, it's hard to determine if that'd be something you specifically could do, but most women have access to even basic cantrips." She leans forward, lowering her voice. Girl talk. "Let me tell you, I'm glad that there's some teas or whatever here to take because I did not want to have to worry about my moon cycle here." Not that she's bedding anyone (flirting aside), but there are some biological things no one likes having to deal with.

She sits back straighter. "You can't necessarily learn everything, mind you. And you might not have a lot. But magic's a tool much like anything else."
