After a brutal expedition outside the walls, many soldiers went missing and were presumed dead. You are heavily injured but survived, and was left behind as the remaining soldiers returned to the Survey Corps HQ. Your equipment was busted, but you managed to find a horse.

A few days later, you are seen by Levi coming over the hill headed towards headquarters. You are carrying an unconscious Hange in your arms, Miche's large frame is laying across the horse, also unconscious, and you are dragging a hurt Moblit behind you on a makeshift tarp.
