One Manakete ally to Marth, Bantu, believed that his role was to broker a lasting peace and understanding between the two races. Although he succeeded in ruling the world for two periods of time adding up to several decades, Medeus was thrice thwarted and killed: first by Anri, then twice more by his descendant, the Hero-King Marth. This ultimately led to the rise of the Manakete ruler Medeus and his Dolhr Empire, which sought to exact vengeance upon humanity for their crimes against the Manaketes and to retake Archanea as the Manaketes' land. In their weak humanoid forms, the Manaketes were easily abused and mistreated, and were condemned to living in poverty. In the following millennia as humans became the dominant power over the Archanean continent, Manaketes became the target of racism from humans in an exercise of their new-found power over the land. By sealing their powers into Dragonstones, Manaketes retained the ability to temporarily become dragons, but never for long owing to the risks posed to their health. While many (including almost all earth dragons) refused to accept this and eventually devolved into mindless beasts, others accepted the word of the dragon elders and took human forms, thus becoming Manaketes. In response, the dragonkin learned that the only way to survive the condition was to take the forms of humans, and so sought to convince all dragons to do so. In antiquity, Archanea was the epicenter of an advanced dragon civilization prior to the rise of humanity, until a mysterious wave of deteriorating health struck them, rendering them infertile and slowly driving them mad. 4.5 Shadow Dragon, New Mystery of the Emblem.4.1 Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light.Although in some cultures in the series the Manakete race is regarded as legendary and worthy of worship, in others they have a long history of bitter conflict with humanity.
