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. It is in this fight where Zeth loses his helmet. The search for any information about the bandit in still taking place. Multiple more attacks took place after this, and Zeth continued to fight with his fellow councilmen and found some success.

As Almmoria started to get on its feet once again, Zeth decided to go on an expedition to Eldham to find out more about his Cogaidh family lineage and his Sabu roots. He took shelter in Sethris, as well as splitting his time back in Almmoria.

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. He decided to start a new journey at his new found home, Sethris.
