want to find the remains of the True Cross, if it were possible...

Two of the largest pieces of the true cross, the top one in an Orthodox monastery on Mt Athos, the other somewhere in the Catholic Church.

Sphinx is, however, a master of Wikipedia!

I have a few ideas as to where their loyalty lies, but that is between them and God.
