Since the abilities of the Founder Titan, & all other titans & SoY to a lesser yet still considerable extent seem to be dependent on Ymir Fritz slaving away to reconst things in the the "Paths", and Eren freed her, only managing to use the power though having persuaded Ymir to help him, doesn't that significantly complicate the ability of anyone else being able to replace Eren & change his plans against his/Ymir's will? Once set free by Eren, she chose to help him rather than obey the orders of the free Royal, Zeke who was present as well. Not to mention that the Rumbling might not just automatically stop if he dies. Logically speaking, if Ymir is no longer bound to obey whoever the holds the founder, then only persuassion or a nearly impossible level of force can stop Eren's stated plan. The chapter titles, "To you, 2,000 years from now", & "From you, 2,000 years ago" almost seem to imply that Ymir & Eren might act as bookends to the story of the Titans & SoY.

If Eren's freeing of Ymir has indeed locked out anyone else from just eating him, & forcing Ymir to stop the Rumbling, it seems that there are only really 4 ways in which this could go:

1.) Eren's plan is what it seems at face value and the Scouts-Warriors Alliance manages to defeat both Eren and his Colossus Titan army.

2.) Eren's plan is what it seems at face value and he succeeds in carrying out the full extent of the Rumbling.

3.) Eren is convinced (likely by Mikassa, with perhaps some help from Armin) to bring the Rumbling to a close.

4.) Eren is attempting to play a Dr. Manhattan/Lelouch role and will purposely take a fall at some point during the fight with the team going up against him so that Paradis & the Eldians are credited by the world for saving them & breaking the "Curse of Ymir".

I'd like to hear what people's thoughts on all of this are.
