Now, on to the first portion of Chapter, I mean, I voted 10 in the poll but, and the imagery was striking, but I'm not sure Erwin's existential crisis really worked... I'm gonna read this chapter a few more times (not much dialogue, this chapter went by quickly for me) and reserve my judgment but the most I can say is that there's possibly a bit of foreshadowing that Erwin (I presume he knows where the basement is) might perceive the battle is faultering and decide to pay the basement a visit intended as his last act alive.

This would be interesting because, and I suspect this runs in strong contrast to the expectations of most of the people here including myself, instead of the survey corps wins the battle and secures the location and then we get a chapter devoted to the basement all neat and wrapped up, maybe the battle begins to go very poorly and in the chaos Erwin decides to go play one last gamble.
