I actually have to wonder about the quality of Xaela horseflesh, myself. As with the Mongolians, the horses "native" to the region of the steppes were usually the more shaggy "pony" type. Shorter, stocky animals more suited to hauling things than warfare or speed. This, of course, makes more sense for a nomadic people to have stocky work animals rather than war mounts but as with the Mongolians, the native horses were of 'mediocre' quality in comparison to the horses in the Western world. So did they (the Xaela) acquire horses somewhere else OR, in a divergence from the Mongolian-Xaela parallel, did they always have the best horses because the other large continent favors Chocobos?Â
Also on a side note, when are we getting those normal-ish horse mounts, SE?Â
Regardless, as an amateur student of Mongolian history I've found myself becoming more and more enamored by the concept of the Au Ra, the Xaela in particular, obviously. This is good times =)
