"A hard-working boy, that would neither complain nor rest until the work was done. He helped the elderly farmers carry the baskets and even went to hunt deer in the forests near by. He is certainly going to be the ''Populus Rex'' of Solarius." ''Text from the: Scrolls of Elgri to King Solus XV''.

He was raised in the Daemoian Lifestyle named after how King Daemon V's was raised with the people in a average town raised by trusted citizens.

He helped the elderly farmers carry the baskets and even went to hunt deer in the forests near by. He is certainly going to be the Populus Rex of Solarius." Text from the: Scrolls of Elgri to King Solus XV.

The friend group the Zacharias formed consisted of by age 10 was Garios Melvos, Daren Deos, Victoria Memos, Plubious Vigoria, Julius Felco, Lucullus Reta, Quintus Asina, Juliana Asina, Justin Yigo & Zacharias Celestia. The group of ten always hanged out together, and would help around the town with chores and work. One day, in July, there was a fire at the town barn, and with the organization by Zacharias and his adaptive brother, a team of citizens filled their buckets with water and had a system to get water fast to put out the fire. This was the first instance of firefighters outside the cities of Solarius. Many more years would go by and the town flourished with the help of Zacharias and his group. By 18, Zacharias, along with his friends, help improve the town and the town would go on to be funded by the government.
