The baby was found by Sethrans shortly after. Zeth was raised by his adopted father, Oot, while living on the streets. Zeth was a very rebellious teen, constantly running from the law. To make some more money for him and his father, he joined a mercenary guild called the Clan of Phantom. He was seen as a prodigy among the other members and was given the materials to forge his own armor that has now become notorious. Zeth would dawn the alias “Mercrio” as this is what many commoners called him. It meant “shadow” in the native tongue.

Maria tells Zeth the truth and Zeth refuses to finish the mission. Because of this another Mercenary kills Maria.

=== Rathnir ===
Not much is know about Mercrio. He originally joined the town of Zemlya but joined the upcoming nation of Almmore soon after as the Lord Marshal. He was a major part of Almmores roots as it was first starting, and even governed a town called Rito for a short period of time before giving up on it, but on December 2nd, 2021, something unexpected happened. Duke Blake Almmore I, the leader of Almmore, mysteriously vanished without a trace. After a few hours later the Grand Council of Almmore took it into their own hands to keep the Almmore alive. They elected Mercrio as their new leader since he was part of the nation the longest out of them and had some experience in governing the city of Rito.
On December 11, 2021, After finding out some of his high council members were spying on Thalassii , Zeth decided to hide them in Almmore, and even turned on Chorboi and Thalassii, giving his friends and the other people from this organization free passage to Thalassii. Zeth then pretended to act like they took control of Almmore and got info out of Chorboi. After Chorboi knew he was lying and saw that Chorboi was War dodging, Mercrio made the decision to declare independence from Thalassii, thus becoming the King of Almmore.
However, Zeth did not realize that all of this was much bigger than he though, as Loic and his followers were attempting to take over the continent of Sparwood. Zeth agreed to join there cause, only because he knew members of his high council were followers of Loic, and if he didn’t agree his time a king would come to an unfortunate end.
Over time, Zeth decided that he would have to try to at least get Almmores citizens out of the mess of Sparwood, and reached out to Bardonia for refuge. Then, someone told Loic about Zeths distrust in him, he believes it was someone who asked about what was happening, but Loic refused to say. Loic took all of Zeths power in the war and word spread fast, with now almost all of his high council against him.
On December 29, 2021, the high council would not speak to Zeth and he felt as if his entire nation turned against him. On December 30, 2021 he resigned as King. He did not trust that Almmore would thrive under Loics power, so gave the nation to Rohel. He then disappeared without a trace, only occasionally sending letters to his friend, Llyre. 
He bounced around nations around the end of May until setting in Tortuga, specifically Tortuga Isle. Almost immediately after joining, a war broke out. He quickly learned the Tortugan ways and got super drunk at a party with Warwick Walterson and a bunch of other Tortugans. It was later revealed that the war was all a hoax.
After disappearing from Rathnir once again, he rejoined his former home, Almmore, as the head of foreign relations and the mayor af an upcoming city located East of Almmoria. After the return of King Blake Almmore, Mercrio was reassigned his position of Lord Marshal as he was in Almmores first days. As Zeth and the other members of Almmores council were constructing the castle, a bandit by the name of “Coot” won a 1v5 and Zeth as well as a few others lost all of their valuables. Multiple more attacks took place after this, and Zeth continued to fight with his fellow councilmen and found some success.
Zeth was promoted to Hand of the King, but left the nation as a whole a few weeks later as nobody, not even the king, was active. After hearing of his fathers death, he decided to meet his family from Sethris, a nation in Eldham. 
== Eldham ==
Once in Sethris, Zeth quickly became active and joined the national soccer team. He laid low for about a month.
== Return to Rathnir ==
On his voyage back to Rathnir, Zeths ship was lost at sea, and he was pronounced dead. However, a group of sea turtles brought him to the Tortuga isle. Zeth had no memory of his past life, and now went by Edward Oroso. Edward would spend time really getting involved in Tortuga Isle and making new relationships there. About a week of being there we have promoted to officer. Edward would spend his days drinking, stealing, and other pirate things. He often went out looking for adventure as he became bored in his current life, and he discovered a shipwreck off the coast of the isle. As he got closer he saw vision. Visions of this ship sinking. A little freaked out, he returned home, but the vision played over and over again in his mind.
Weeks past and that vision continued to play in his head, so he went back to the wreck, this time with a water breathing potion. As he got closer, the vision played again, and then another vision, and another, until another mans life had flashed before his eyes. Then he saw it, a vision of the fearsome assassin, Mercrio, looking into a mirror. This was his life. but then, Mercrio took of his helmet to reveal Edwards face. It all made sense now. Why he could barely remember his childhood or anything before a few months ago. In an instant, all of his memories were restored, but who was he? Most of his life he had been Zeth, but Zeth was dead. Everyone who knew him knew him as Edward. He decided to stick with the name Edward, and finding his armor was his next step. He went to the Pirate Lord, Ulifer, for answers. As soon as Ulifer saw him, he knew Edward had gained his memories back. Ulifer showed him to his armor and weapons. As soon as his fingers touched his swords hilt, he could hear the screams of the thousands of men he had killed with it. Mercrio was back, and was determined to kill anyone who did him wrong.
After nearly dying, Edward did a lot of meditation in which he believes he found the true order of the world, and he founded the religion Fultonism.
A lot of time had passed, and Edward grew old in Tortuga. He had learned many pirate tales to pass the time, and would tell them to the children of Tortuga. One, however, caught his attention. A fountain that would make one youthful again. The idea of being young again drove Edward to follow the story that he had told so many times, and it brought him to a cave off the coast of the old Tortuga isle. Inside said cave he found it. Behind riddles and booby traps laid a green spring. His vast knowledge of the canon of Tortuga very much aided him, and must have been the reason it had been left in ruin for so long. He laid in the pool, as he was slowly submerged in its liquid.
== Reborn ==
When he woke, Zeth was no longer in the pool he once laid in, in fact, he barely remembered the last 60 years. He woke up in a bed. It would happen that bed was in a cell, and that cell aboard a ship. Zeth heard murmurs around him as he sat up, the crew looked at him in fear, a fear he haven’t seen in years. On the table outside the cell he saw a set of armor. His armor, along with his helmet and trust sword. Above that table there was a mirror, and when Zeth looked in he saw himself, yet, his hair was no longer thin and white, rather lush and brown. His long beard was now just stubble, and his wrinkles were gone, leaving only the scar across his face from a prior battle. A battle that happened 62 years ago. No lost teeth, no earrings in his ears, no herpes. There were no signs of his pirate life at all. 
=== Personality ===
Zeth is much more laidback than he comes off as, but he takes his job as a mercenary very seriously, with 47 completed bounties (in game). He values his relationships with others a lot, which can sometimes lead him to making poor decisions for his friends. Zeth also does not forgive and forget, keeping his anger for actions others did a long time ago in the front of his mind, making him very vengeful. He continues to try and find new opportunities, but always finds himself back with his old pals.
== Armor and Weapons ==
Mercrio can often be seen in his iconic black and green armor. The armor is made mostly of netherite and other strong materials and the shoulder pads were painted green by his own design. His green visor also serves as a hud, showing his vitals. He can also be seen with his trusty sword, and has been seen with a sword gifted to him by pirates called “the great sword of giggles”
