"The enemy of my enemy… isn’t my friend, but for now, they’ll do."
Destroyed Shiganshina District, Paradis Island — It was as if the Devil had assumed God's role. Eren Yeager, with the help with Zeke Yeager, has instigated The Rumbling. Ceasefire fell upon the initial battlefield where the Revenge for Liberio Operation conducted by the Marleyan Forces used to be, as the millions upon millions of Colossal Titans rumble and walk ominously past them following Eren's Founding Titan's stead, the Marleyan Forces, led by Commander Theo Magath, made first contact with Eldia's finest, the Survey Corps.
"This is a fucking joke, right?" Jean Kirstein on the Survey Corps scoffs. "We're seriously working with the enemy, specifically the one that turns into a quadruple-legged-weird-looking Titan?"
It didn't take long before Hange Zoe elbowed Jean, causing an audible grunt from him, all the while Mikasa Ackermann observantly gazed at Pieck and Magath with wariness.
Pieck, standing just a few feet away, arched a brow.
"Quadruple-legged weird-looking Titan?" she repeated, her tone amused, not at all angered. "That’s a new one."
And so, Eldia and Marley shook hands for an uneasy alliance against Yeager.
