"Kenny Ackerman, right?" Historia asked as she strode over to him. The man groaned loudly as he straightened himself before addressing the Queen, who was in the company of Levi, the Ackerman Brat.

"What can I do for you, your grace?" Kenny asked without bothering with stupid courtesy; he was never one to bow down and do all that boring shit. If Historia wanted something from him, he would do it, but he wasn't one to bow. Kenny noticed the glare that Levi gave him; it wasn't because of the lack of courtesy. Kenny knew Levi still didn't fully trust him, and he tolerated his presence.

"My sister used to visit me on the farm when I was a little girl," Historia said, and Kenny wondered where she was getting at; he knew that, while Frieda tried to be subtle about it, Kenny knew what she was doing from the very beginning; he had told her as much to Uri, who had been an old man at the time, surprisingly, he had told Kenny to hold his blade and not do anything, Kenny wondered why, the younger Uri would have told him to bring back Frieda to her home, and to slice Historia's throat.

Back then, Kenny wished to have known what was going through Uri's head all those years, but now, after knowing the truth, Kenny knew what it was: his friend was living the life of someone else. In a way, the real Uri had died the moment he became a Titan Shifter, and his mind wasn't his anymore, so Kenny was happy to know that his old friend was free now; he no longer had to suffer ever again.

"Yes, Frieda did visit you often. What about it?" Kenny asked as he leaned forward, away from the column of the hall.

"I would like to know more about my uncle and sister. You knew them, so I was hoping you could tell me more." Historia requested. Kenny tried to hide it but failed to hide that he didn't like the idea of talking about Uri specifically. He could understand why she wanted to know more about them, and he wondered why she was even asking like this: she was the Queen; she could order him instead. Kenny wasn't sure if he would have liked it more if she had been commanding him instead of talking to him so softly.

"Very well, but not everything you will hear is pleasant, and I'm not one to sugarcoat it for you, dear Queen. I will be as blunt as possible." Historia accepted it with a smile. They both walked out of the castle and found three horses. The land that belonged to the Royal Family was quite vast.

Soon enough, Kenny and Historia were standing in front of a flowing river. The two could hear the chirping of birds and the smell of the flowers. A vast green field was around them, with the forest far into the distance and a tree trunk lying on its side near the river.

"I have never been here before," Historia said, a little amazed at the beautiful sight. Kenny nodded without much thought as he motioned for her to sit on the trunk near her. While both watched the river flowing, the little fish could be seen swimming like silver arrows.

"This place. I first met your uncle here. I was here to kill him."

"Kill Him! But why?" Historia gasped. Looking up at him, Kenny grinned, as if remembering a pleasant memory.
