Summary
As a bird flies above the battlefield, Falco, delirious from the fighting, calls for it to fly away. His brother, Colt, appears above him carries Falco to the trenches for safety. Colt's commander, Magath, approaches him, asking him for a status report on the situation on the battlefield. Colt reports that the Eldian unit is completely wiped from the defense and the unit could not expand their lines. This met with hostility both from Magath and his lieutenant.

Meanwhile, Falco is awakened by his friends and forgotten what happened in the battle. Gabi cleans his wound and explains the situation. The Battle of Fort Slava is the climax of the war between Marley and the Mid East Allied Force that is ongoing for 4 years. If they destroyed the fort, or rather the navy stationed there, they could end the war victorious but need to overcome the fort's high ground in order to reach the port. Zofia asks why the navy could not destroy the fleet, to which Udo retaliates, saying that the navy took 4 years to control the sea and lost half of their ships in the process, angry at their incompetence and asking the army to capturing Fort Slava. As he rants, he does not notice that he is squeezing Falco's bandages, hurting him until Gabi hits Udo to stop him.

Falco ask why the Warrior candidates are in the battlefield, to which Gabi answered saying that it is a test to see who out of 4 candidates is most worthy to inherit Reiner's Armored Titan. Gabi is confident she will inherit the Armored Titan, as she not only good grades, but has the resolve to carry the duty of serving the Eldian people and kill the "island devils" to prove the world that there are good Eldians and to free her people from the interment zone. As she talks, she constructs a bomb.

Colt suggest to sent in the Jaw and Cart Titan, to which Magath refuses. They soon an armored train, which Magath explains that it has four 150mm artillery cannons, capable of killing Titans with a single shot. Colt argues that both Titans are fast enough to avoid the artillery fire. However, Magath refuses, stating that they would risk losing both the Warriors and the Titans, creating a repetition of their same mistake of when they lost the Colossal Titan and the Female Titan in Paradis, which caused the war between Marley and Mid East Allied Force as it seemed that Marley is losing their military might due to losing a portion of their most powerful weapons, the Power of the Titans.

He sent his lieutenant to give the order to 800 Eldian soldiers unit to a suicidal charge against the armored train and railroad while the Warrior candidate stay behind for their potential candidate for the Warriors.
