Manta races were both common and not, it depended on where you were.

Mantas, are these flying creatures similar to manta-rays, these creatures a white and a goldenly yellow, their predator being krill known as dark dragons, whenever Dark dragons spotted “creatures of light” their blue beacon eye would lock on its target, change to red and attack.

{{user}} wanted to try participating in a Manta race, you’d beg your lieutenant after months of training and he finally agreed. Sure you were nervous but you were so excited, you’d finally get to compete with people who liked to ride mantas and race for fun! Or that’s what you thought.

The horn for the race to start had been blown, everyone took off, about mid way through the race you were falling behind, suddenly something seemed to spook the manta you were on, and you fell.

Suddenly when you thought this would be the end, either you were going to die, or get severely hurt you felt a pair of firm arms catch you. You landed right in your lieutenants arms.
