What if Eldian's were slaves of Marley all along, depricted to all other nations as Devils to ensure fear in them and brainwash Eldian's themselvers into submission out of guilt for sins that weren't their own?

What if the first King had started to rebel and tried to give his people a bit of freedom in the Walls while ensuring the Coordinate couldn't be used anymore to break havoc.

What if Marley wants the Coordinate to brainwash the Eldians into submission cause they are starting to get out of their control?

Isn't it curious that the one titan that wasn't seized by Marley is descrived as the one that always moves forward seeking freedom?

Also the thirteen year rule seems quite sketchy, except for Uri we haven't seen anyone get that old so fast could it be that it only applies to the coordinate but Marley made the other shifters believe it applyed to them too to ensure the Shifters couldn't rebel aganist them? it is easier to manipulate children over adults and by changing them often they are securing themselvers an obbedient puppet.

You could argue that Kruger himself wasn't looking so good, but the previous holder might not have clarified that fact and he might have believed Marley's lie or he may have aged from stress.

It's fun to speculate :) everyone would like that... and the way marley treat eldia and tell them about their past has always sounded phony, how could a person meet the devil, why would the 9 titan shifters go against marley and conduct a manslaughter when they have vast lands to inhabit around the world? why would the 145th king move to a puny island just to shift his capital city, how would he be so idiotic to leave marleyans alive if the eldians did conduct a manslaughter? and the biggest thing, why would 1700 years of this cleansing result in some puny humans(Marleyans) eventually getting the shifter powers? did the marleyans steal the power just like that? nope.

just think, what chance would an army have against 8 titan shifters, even when the weaponry was limited? and IF ethnic cleansing was done 4 1700 years then there wouldnt be any marleyan left!
