Furtive
Zeke enclosed the location of Eren to the Prince of Hiruzu, Levi Ackerman. The man look at him skeptically first but he assured him that it was true. He just couldn't wait for Eren's downfall and for the throne to he his, although a lot of people are on his side, the council of their country take no shits from anyone even if the person is a member of the royal family. They were treated higher than the royal family, really as it was the very first union on them. It pissed him off, the country is expecting them as the new king but the council wouldn't budge even a little, they contradict everything that the people had say and it's threatening him, as some people began to believe them. The people who believes that he wasn't suited as a king is only little but he still need to get rid of them, you wouldn't let a small fire become bigger and burn you right? That's what he is doing.
Levi told his vassals to move faster, they are approaching the island that Zeke told him and he couldn't wait to step in there and to hug his sister, to bring her back to their room and to bring the smiles back to his parents faces. He couldn't bare seeing them so sad, it's been a long time and he travelled a month just to find her and now, he is getting closer. His hears is being filled with happiness, he would really listen to whatever Kiyomi would say if he is able to bring her back home. The Prince smiled happily, encouraging his vassals to move even faster and to out more charcoal in it to make them faster. He made a deal with Zeke but it doesn't mean that he won't do his own move, Zeke doesn't seem like a man he could trust.

Armin step foot in the big library, the famous library of Marley. Rumoured to have the world's secrets inside, artifacts, they said even the rarest thing could be found there. They said the library is full of overflowing secrets and he's here to find out about it. His blonde locks covered his face as he continue to step, soft patters of his shoulders could he heard against the creaking woods but then if it has secrets inside why does a lot of people walk inside of it, as if it's just a normal library? He didn't know that's why he's here, slowly walking and wanting to investigate it. What would he learn? About Eren's mother, that's his only purpose, the only reason that he is here and then what after he found out? He doesn't know, he's afraid to know it really.
He walk inside the room carefully, as queit as he can and he was momentarily mesmerized by the beauty of this place. There are lots of shelves inside, a lot of books, a big study table left and right, an organized place. There was also a big window in the upper corner that gives light every morning to this place. He began searching, books after books, artifacts after artifacts and then he found a secret cabinet inside, with a beautiful parchment sealing it as if it was just a design. He touched it, feeling it's rough texture .
He heard voices coming into his direction, so he immediately hide behind the shelves and he heard the creak of the door, opening it as footsteps come inside the room.
"King Grisha, we can't." He heard the voice said. " I don't know how to hide all of this anymore, soon everything will be discovered."
" Nothing will be discovered if you shut your mouth pretty well." The king told, glaring.
" But--" he sigh, " The Queen will ask you and soon your son will find out and if he do, there are chances that the Arlert's case would reopen."
" Nothing would open up, all Arlert's are gone and no evidences remain except for what's in that room." The King said calmly. " Now, we will go to the council and act as if nothing had happened. I would accompany Dina to Carla's grave."
" Even the grave is a lie." He sigh.

Queen Dina smiled as she went outside of her carriage, there was a triumphant smirk on her face as she stare at the house of her brother. There was a string sense of happiness deep inside of her, a happiness for somebody else downfall because everything is hers now, she believes. She was greeted by her brother's wife, patiently waiting for her in their receiving area, a hot tea in her hand and sweets on the side, she side eye the Queen.
"To what is this honor?" The woman smirk at the Queen.
"To Carla's death." The Queen replied, taking a seat infront of her, the servant gave her a tea.
"Finally after a very long time, he is mine now. All his love and affection." The Queen laughs and the woman gave her a side eye look, rolling her eyes in disbelief. She put her cup of tea down and put a sugar in it then stir it."I don't think you really love the king." She said boredly and boldly.
"What do you mean?"
He's your obsession.
_______At last, he could see the island without a binocular. Levi's face become a right as the sunlight hits him. He was exhausted yet excited to see his sister once again after a very long time. He was so closed and he will be able to bring her back home, everything will be the same again. No Eren, no chaos, but just them in their island and living their lives.
" Add more charcoals, we're close." He told them.

In the room, Frieda and Historia is talking. Historia is crying to her sister, " I didn't expect this alright. I never thought this would happen."
" Historia, it's the consequences of your actions."
" I shouldn't have enclosed the location to him, Mikasa probably hates me so much right now and I have nothing. I don't want to face her in the future and knowing that I ruined her life."
" I thought it was to help Eren take his revenge."
" It was…" She replied, " Yes, it was. He told me the king of Hiruzu killed his grandmother and it felt heartbreaking, so I want to help him take his revenge."" By giving her?"
" I only enclosed the location, I didn't know he would take her." She told her, explaining her side. " Help me escape, I don't want to marry him. I don't want to be miserable."
Frieda closed her eyes, exhaling. " Ok, " she paused.
" Take this money and this map, go there and you will see a horse. Just follow the directions and it will help you escape."" Thank you." Historia smiled at her sister and they hugged.
The feeling of joy fills her inside, she rode the horse. Looking determinated to get out of her palace, she was ready to run away into the her future and everything will finally be in her hands. She is happy, she breath heavily and rode the horse fast. Frieda watched her from behind with a smile on her face, she went inside the palace, ready to take the matter in her hands.
