[myth deleted] and assuming Basmol and Basmola are really the same, make that
sixth or seventh...

        ???? I think that they are no more or less lions than other Hsunchen are there beasts. ie when it comes right down to it, they are humans, and they believe that they are descended from beasts.

        
        You know, all this isn't really helping. Who do the Basmoli of Prax
believe killed their god? Anyone have a definitive answer, or even a reference?
