No I'm fairly confident they were all sundered with everyone else. That notwithstanding, doesn't mean they left some kind of method for themselves to follow or just Hydaelyn sent them forth to fix the post-sundered world. But the nature of this discussion alone just goes to show that missing pieces of the Ancient's history is what was Azem doing when the summons were done, how did Azem influence the post-sundered world, and when did Azem go over to Hydaelyn's side?
