According to DotE, Pegataurs were created by an Alphatian wizard - cross-breeding Pegasi and Shiye-Lawr elves. Therfore, continues DotE, they may be found only in several places in Alphatia.
How did they get to Serraine, then?

How did they get to Serraine, then?

Just guesses but:
-Serraine had visited Alphatia at some point and some pegataurs left with the city.
-An Alphatian used pegataurs to travel to Serraine, became a citizen there, and the pegataurs stayed as well.
-"Top Ballista" suggests that the wizard origin story isn't true; that they were created by the Immortals. The history of Serraine says the first pegataurs there were merecenaries.

The "truth" could be up to you IYC. I had forgotten about these creatures.

What if the Alphatian wizard's tale is true, just not the entire truth?

An Alphatian Wizard did in fact create a large clan of Pegataurs by combining Shiye Elves and Pegasi. However, this was not the origin of the Pegataur race as a whole, which had already been created by the Immortals.

This would give us the possibility of fleshing out the Shyie Pegataurs, native to Alphatia, who might be a bit different (culturally, if not stat-wise) from the Known World Pegataurs, many of whom frequently visit Serraine.
