Of Ostriches and Eiritha

Let's talk about the Ostrich Tribe for a while.  I believe there was an article about them in one of the editions of Heroes magazine back in the day.  I don't know if that info remains current.  Now, my understanding is that Ostriches are not Eiritha beasts, and the menfolk of the tribe follow their own version of Yelmalio rather than Waha, and they don't follow Eiritha either, but they are clearly an accepted "tribe" (there are only around 1000 of them, which would generally qualify them as a clan, not a true tribe).  Now on the other hand, the Ostriches clearly haven't received the ruthless persecution and hatred than the Pure Horse people copped, and are in fact a part of the Two Legged Alliance.  (For the record, the Two Legged Alliance is comprised of three tribes, the Ostrich Riders, the Bolo Lizard People, and a third tribe who is unnamed, but I will propose that it is the Morokanth).  So, my question is this...   

What is the relationship between the Ostriches and the Eiritha hierarchy at the Paps?  Is the Ostrich tribe seen as Praxian by adoption?  How are they seen?  All Praxian tribes are pretty hostile to one another, do they reserve any special hatred for the Ostrich riders, as they do for horse riders?  Are the Ostrich tribe simply too small in number to be concerned about?  What are people's thoughts?
