Glimpse Of Hope

Night of the battle to retake the wall

In the capital Levi, Erwin, Hange and Pyxis wait for someone in a room, before hearing the door open

Dhalis: Sorry I'm late.

Dhalis takes a seat

Dhalis: Well? Have we discovered what's in the container?

Hange: The thing is... With our technology, I'm afraid we can't dig much deeper. Like we've heard from Eren and Historia, it seems to originate from some sort of bodily fluid. However, it vaporizes when exposed to air, making analysis difficult. Whoever made this must have had technology far superiors to ours. If it was the Reiss family, I couldn't imagine how.

Pyxis: Hmm... In that case, instead of tampering with it, we should use it to achieve our current objective.
Dhalis: But who do we entrust it to? Erwin, to you?

Erwin: No... I'm no more than a wounded soldier. This box belongs with our elite soldiers who has the best odds of survival. Levi, would you keep it?

Levi: If it's an order, just say so. Why even ask the question?

Erwin: We can't predict in what situation we'll have to use this. We'll be relying on you to make a decision on the fly. Judging when and who to use on will be for you to choose. Can we leave that to you?

Levi: If this dream of yours comes true, what will you do then?

Erwin: I... don't know. I won't until it happens.

Levi: I see... All right. I'll do it.

Levi closes the case and puts stores it in his pocket

Dhalis: By the way, I'd like to unveil that work of mine soon. Have you given it though?

Pyxis: You still haven't given up on that? If the public saw that repulsive display, trust in the military would hit rock bottom.

Dhalis: You don't know art until you see it.

In Trost Erwin has all the Scout captain Squad leaders and Y/N in a room to discuss

Erwin: In other words, Eren's father, Grisha Yeager, is likely a human who came from outside the walls.

Hange: Yes. Just like Annie, Reiner, Bertholdt, he possessed the Power of the Titans, But differently from those three, he was supportive of humanity within the walls.

Y/N: That would mean, the other Titan me, Nanaba, Gelgar and Lynne saw must also be a human. But he is different as he can speak and kills both Titans and humans. So we can't be sure if he can be allied, even after what he did.

Klaus: If he was so interested to know about the Scouts and such, we could've used more of that support. As for the Titan you and Nanaba saw, even if it could be an ally we can't trust it fully, he was the one that killed Mike.

Nanaba: That is true, but if we can just lure him we can use him for information.

Hange: I wonder... From the moment he entered the walls, he was searching for the royal family alone, I'm sure. And that... That's not something you do without incredible resolve. That same father wanted to show his 10-year old son, eager to join the Scouts, the basement of their home. On death's door, he said the truth of it all was, in that basement. What in the world do you think is down there?

Erwin: Things Grisha Yeager couldn't say even if he wanted to. That which the First King Reiss wiped from our memories. Memoires of our world. Is what I hope, but... Pondering about it here won't accomplish much. Y/N.

Y/N: Yes, sir?

Erwin: Do you think you know what Grisha would be hiding?

Y/N: I wish I could say, ever since I met him he was always acting kind and respectful as if he was just a regular person living in the walls. And when I moved in with the Yeagers he was always down there working, and would only come up for dinner and to go out for work. I know something about medicine has to be down there, but from what I've learned with you all, I don't know what he was hiding.
