David Dunham offered possibilities for the whereabouts of reptile hsunchen today:

>They are no longer hsunchen, i.e. they adopted Councilic ways and are
>now Orlanthi (most likely to happen to an entire culture)

>They were all wiped out by Alakoring Dragonbreaker

>I don't think there's any evidence for any particular one (and in
>fact all three could be true to a a greater or lesser degree).

I agree with him but I am also absolutely convinced that there is a weird serpent worshipping cult somewhere in Ralios that is headed up by the last surviving members of the serpent hsunchen. Cheesy fantasy, H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Robert E. Howard and many others make it mandatory!

As far as the zebras go there's probably no "safer" place in Prax to raise horses than within the Big Rubble. You couldn't have a huge herd and you'd have to pay off the trolls but you could keep a steady flow of cavalry zebras
coming out. Enough for a fairly small unit at least. In fact I'm pretty sure that's
what the head of the Royal Pavic Guard does. I'm sure he could provide steeds for the right price.
