Elsewhere...on the Island of Paradis

Queen Historia, last descendant of The Reiss Family and the monarch of Paradis, lay within her home...about to give birth to an heir.

Guards wearing the symbol of the cadet Corp upon their uniforms stand guard outside her home with rifles in their hands in an undisclosed location within Wall Sina.

Historia grips onto a pair of ropes tightly above the headboard of her bed to cope with the pain, but they can only do so much as she screams in agony upon each contraction.

As the nurses and her husband stand by her bedside to provide her succor...a faint, echoing roar shakes the very rafters of the house...

"What...what is that?" A nurse asks

"An earthquake?" Historia's husband asks, putting a concerned hand upon the shoulder of his wife

Historia, with tears brought on by the pain of labor streaming down her face, closes her eyes as she recognizes it instantly, the sonorous roar of the one who aided her and her people when He first arrived to this land.

Meanwhile...Outside of Fort Salta...

Godzilla, King of The Monsters continues to sound his resonant roar as blue smoke continues to billow from the cracks between his spines, powerful and loud enough to force the humans within the fort to cover their ears, lest they go deaf.

Even Kong and the rest of their allies are forced to shield their ears as King Ghidorah shakes his two remaining heads, unable to cover the hearing apparatus' upon them nor drown out the deafening sound of his nemesis.

Meanwhile...

In a place outside of time itself Armin continues to talk to Zeke, the latter giving a rather educational lecture.

"Long long ago, when nothing but mere matter existed in this world, as countless masses of unknown things appeared, disappeared, then reappeared again...one of them survived, a thing we now know as "life"." Zeke begins

"The reason life survived is because it was in it's nature to multiply and take on new forms...the purpose of life...is to multiply." He continues "This sand, these pebbles, the water, they don't seek to multiply but life never stops in it's frantic quest to do so... "

"After all, death and extermination of a species runs counter to the goal of multiplying, hence why we face a punishment known as "fear" and why that child sought to avoid such punishment." Zeke says "Something stronger...larger...she gave birth to an undying body and escaped to a world that was free...of even death."

As he hears Zeke's words, Armin looks up into the starry sky of eternal night.

"So that girl was Ymir, The Founder." Armin says "And this is the world free of death..."

"In any case, what exactly IS Ymir's goal?" He asks

"I spent an astounding amount of time here, trying to understand her." Zeke continues "Despite all the strength she had, she could never defy King Fritz and why was that?"

"She remained here 2000 years to obey him...for what reason?" Armin asks again

Zeke briefly pauses before answering

"Because she was attached to the world...Eren was able to understand that while I couldnt..." Zeke replies "And that's why Ymir went with him..."

Armin's eyes widen upon hearing this, finally knowing what exactly happened in the span of milliseconds during the War on Shigashina when Zeke and Eren finally made contact with one another, when Zeke caught Eren's head, thus awakening The Founder's power.
