This may have been said many times, but here is my side.. We were given a multitude of Ymir's origins so I'll give a few sceneros of her existence.

Scenerio 1: Ymir obtaining her powers from "the devil."



Based off this assumption from the Marlies, Ymir made a pact with the Devil. Ymir may have been desperate for power due to what it seems to be a major war going on. In order to stop and prevent wars, she would want to seek power (possibly through temptations). Thus granting her the power of a Giant to lay fear upon people, creating peace.



Fear could be the strongest way to dissuade a war. In fact, with that much power it would be a dare for people to challenge you in any type of way. I mean who would actually try to take on a giant knowing that you'll soon be mashed potatoes or string beans.

Scenerio 2: Ymir being the original giant sent by the...gods??



I mean it sounds pretty sick if you ask me. Like I said earlier, this is proven unstoppable. Who knows what type of blood bath happened before the arrival of titan powers. Sure it turned out a lot worse, but desperate times will always be desperate times.



It is not known how and where all of titans (giants) came from, but if they had to be from somewhere they would have to be created by a divine figure or more. However they came about, Ymir must have created or "blessed" 8 other people in a mission to create "peace."

However, all may have turned deadly due to the fact that wars couldn't be stopped.



In addition to the creation of Eldia, several attacks were launched at the surrounding countries, especially the Marlies. I believe that eventually the Marlies may have found a way to capture the power of the titans in order to use it against Eldia and would later use it as a means of power which may explain how they apprehend seven titan powers later in the war leaving King Fritz with two.

My question is, what was King Fritz's true intentions? Was he actually trying to carry out what ymir left off? Was this a warning against all of humanity and their potential evils?

Well back to the ancient war of titans and humans: The original Nine Titans probably took things to the extreme in they're own hands as desperate measures evolve. This may have started the war between countries as the Marlies grew resentment of the Eldians.

Thoughts???
