Which reminds me of something Sandy and I worked over at the last German con: did the Sun Dome Templars of Prax preserve ancient lore telling them what the mythical species known as the "horse" looks like? With, perhaps, an old and badly-stuffed exemplar, plus some oral lore and rules-of-thumb. ("A horse is like a zebra, only of just one colour. Usually. Unless it has more than one. It is something like a unicorn, only it has no horns, and its feet are different. It does not breathe fire. Nor does it have wings. Usually.")
