As time went on, the stories of the Zunanma became twisted, and the facts became distorted.

There are ruins in the [[Grann Desert]] attributed to the Zunanma.<ref>{{cite|By the way, I hear you are traveling north to the Grann Desert. There are ancient ruins there, you know? They are the remnants of a race known as the Zunanma, who come from a civilization that predates our own. I'm sure you will enjoy the sensation of being immersed in such primordial surroundings!|Servant|Path of Radiance}}</ref>


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
No living Zunanma are encountered throughout {{FE9}} or {{FE10}}. As a race, they are presumably extinct, though their numerous descendants, the [[laguz]] and [[beorc]], continue to flourish. The Zunanma are shown to have been vaguely humanoid, and also feature a wide variety of traits from other animals, like birds, dragons, and beasts. Their exact capabilities and other unique traits other than their outer appearance are unknown.
