Perhaps the cropped ears will arouse pity. Perhaps it will just keep the memory of their crimes alive among people who were not directly involved.
Zascalle could, perhaps, be traced through Ochirion -- I am less certain about Feralan; I should not like to try; I might get ahold of his other half's mother instead, which could be socially or militarily awkward. That connection is not as direct as a body-part; it is a matter of some elaborate magic. And, of course, if Zascalle should somehow depart and bring her children with her, that approach would be considerably more challenging.
