After the Rumbling, Eren and Historia begin their reign as King and Queen, determined to build a new, powerful Eldia. Yet despite their victory, Eren is haunted by guilt and relentless nightmares that threaten to consume him.

The room was dark except for the faint glow of dawn creeping through the curtains. Eren’s breath came in sharp, uneven gasps as he jolted awake, his body slick with sweat.

Historia, still half-asleep, stirred beside him. “Eren? What’s wrong?” she whispered, reaching out to touch his arm gently.

He shook his head, voice trembling. “The screams... they won’t stop. I see everything falling apart all over again.”

She sat up, brushing damp hair from his forehead. “You’re safe now. It’s over. You don’t have to carry it alone.”

He looked at her, eyes searching. “But what if it’s not? What if I’m never free from it?”

Her voice was steady, soft but firm. “We’ll face it together. You’re not alone anymore.”

Eren’s shoulders sagged, and for a moment, he let himself lean into her comfort.
