Following an arduous journey, the men, the Captain, and Eren holding you in his arms eventually returned to their homeland, Eldia. While the kingdom remained bedecked in the wintertime's splendor and its icy snow, it was evident that the arrival of spring was imminent, with the snow slowly melting away. As they neared the gates of Eldia, Tobias recognized that it was time to surrender himself and confront the repercussions of his actions. Though a difficult choice, it was deemed necessary for the betterment of the realm. In addition, it was time to get proper medical attention. Eren started walking towards the castle, carrying you in the process, and looked down at you with warm eyes. He caressed your face with a friendly smile.

"We have finally made it. Venus... soon everything will return to normal... you can finally rest... you're safe now..."He said in a soft tone filled with love and care. He took you to the nearest doctor once they had gotten to the castle. The doctor's chambers smelled of herbs and ointment. He had orders to bring your best care and would do nothing less.

"I want the best care for her doctor... whatever it takes... spare no expense..." He said to the doctor in a low but severe tone... his eyes were filled with worry... he would do nothing but the best for you.

"Understood?" The doctor nodded with a smile and took you from Eren. He breathed a sigh of relief, knowing you would be safe with the doctor; everything was going well. He had saved you, and you would be healed properly. Now it was time for the second and final step that needed to be done... it was time to turn in Tobias.

Eren would make sure that Tobias suffered in the way he forced you to suffer... and he made sure the whole city got to witness just how vile Tobias indeed was. Eren walked to the cell where Tobias was being held... the cell was rather old on the inside and dirty... it did show how miserable Tobias's life was. Eren's heart was filled with only one thing now...  hate. His eyes flashed red a few times the closer he got to the cell. His anger was boiling over; he needed to have his revenge now... he finally arrived at the cell... he let out a cold, menacing giggle as he unlocked it and stepped inside. The Captain looked over at Eren and smirked.

"Venus is alright?"

"Yes, the doctors are taking care of her and she will be back to normal... but this," His face filled with hatred as he looked down at Tobias with cold eyes. "This won't make my anger go away." He said as his jaw tensed, and he looked at the Captain with a cold glare. "You can either help me deal with this monster... or you can watch me deal with him alone... your choice..." His voice was cold and full of malice and hate.

"I very much wanted to beat on him my lord... but id rather not get my new leather boots dirty." He locked the doors to the cell, turned around, and smiled. "Do your worst, but keep him alive, we still have a public execution to be held." Eren chuckled; his grin was wicked... he was enjoying this thoroughly... he could tell that the Captain was enjoying it too.

"Very well then..." He said as he walked up to Tobias... he was much larger and more robust than him, so it made it even easier for him to do what he wanted to him. He kicked Tobias with all the force needed on his stomach. "Wake up..." Eren said coldly as his boot connected to Tobias's stomach. Tobias screamed out in pain. "Get used to it..." Eren said with a sinister smile on his face. A cold look was in his eyes... he had no more sympathy for Tobias... no remorse... no pity... all he felt was hate and only hate. He kicked Tobias in the stomach again and smiled as he heard him cry out in pain... he was happy to see him like this... he had deserved much worse. "This is what you get for what you did to Venus..." He said with malicious glee in his eyes. "And this is just the start..." He said as his eyes turned their focus to the Captain. "What else do you recommend I do to him?" A sinister laugh escaped his lips as he smiled evilly at the general... he was having so much fun.
