I forgot the TW 😭
uhm TW: Gore, Death, Blood, Train noise 😭???

I might try and get another video up tonight because this video was worked on since last night (I just left it instead of sneaking to my tablet to add text and finish it).
Unlike Valen and Usrien's focus videos, this one doesn't give his full name, death order, and COD. That's kind of on purpose, because this video feels slightly insignificant and Merquirus' death seems a bit more obscured here. Valen's video was also quite insignificant, but I think it suffices and it HAD to have his details since it was the first MS video.
Regardless, I'll give Merquirus' details (which is more than usual) here.

'Merquirus Herman | Third Victim'
'COD — Bleeding Out' (after bashing his head and blinding himself)

After Valen's demise, Merquirus also had to see one more death before his own. He was convinced that they were all dying and was the first to connect all of the dots, but only because of his insanity. Unfortunately, his discoveries also made him psychotic and afraid, leading to his admission in an asylum. Vesteorra visited him, with slight doubt that they used to be friends (but his parents told him that Merquirus needed all the company he could get), but a day before Merquirus death, he became enraged at how Merquirus kept calling him "Venus"*. That was a planet! How could Vesteorra be a planet? Maybe it was connected to something before the accident, but Vesteorra couldn't remember, so Merquirus should have kept his mouth shut. Vesteorra didn't visit the next day, and Merquirus finally found his means to an end.

*Mercury was the one who decided to nickname everyone but Valen and Xylpho as planets. The Vulcan theory was already disproved and the fifth giant theory was not introduced until after everyone died. Instead of planets, Valen was named Nebula and Xylpho was named Supernova to commemorate their existence, but the names were never set formally. In the future, Xylpho names himself Kuiper, after the Kuiper belt, to honour Merquirus and Valen's young deaths.
