@ Madness, could you point me to the reference? I can't find it!

I wonder how one acquires a Chorae Hoard? I guess the Nonmen ransacked the Ark after defeating the Inchoroi, shipped all of the chorae out, these things are not forbidden like they once were because the long war has demonstrated their usefulness--history, circumstance, the rise of humans and the fall of nonmen see many chorae fall into human hands.
After the Ark was sealed, there was no chorae getting out (assuming the aporetics did their work there) and I can't see the Man'gaecca handing them out as Halloween treats.
Could it be that Sakarpus was orignally founded by the nonmen as a chorae-holding facility?
EDIT: clarifications?

I found the original quote on ZTS but don't have my books to corroborate it anywhere in-text:
--- Quote from: Cu'jara Cinmoi, Aug 2005 ---Because the Few can sense them, most scholars assume that the present day numbers haven't dwindled too much since the Cuno-Inchoroi Wars - it's primarily a question of distribution. There's some ten thousand or so estimated to be in the Three Seas. Then there's the famed 'Chorae Hoard' of Sakarpus, and the far greater hoard amassed by the Consult in Golgotterath.
No one knows how numerous the Nonmen are, only that they are dreadfully outnumbered by Sranc and Men

Thank you, Madness! This solves a long-time problem for me--I didn't see any non-sorcerers in tsa recognize a chorae as a chorae until Mimara. So I wondered if you had to either be marked or have the judging eye to realize a chorae's sorcerous properties. Not so! The FEW can see them! Thank you for clearing that up.
Also, I'm wondering what the 'far greater' hoard in Golgotterath does for local spells? I'm sure Shae has got it all figured out, but it seems like a possibly uncomfortable relationship.
