"We believe that in the basement of his Zhiganshina home, there are answers about the Titans that he himself doesn't have. If we can reach the basement, we will find a clue that will end this century of Titan rule." Erwin stated. Carmina bit her lip; the idea was grand and pure in intent, but would there really be answers to the millions of questions in one young man's basement? "We will head for the basement in Zhinganshina. However, that requires us to retake Wall Maria. In other words, our objective hasn't changed." Erwin turned as Petra and Mike pulled up a map of the wall, "But with the Trost gate sealed, we'll have to take the long way around, from Karanes to the east." He returned his attention to the trainees, "The four years we spent laying a route for a large army have gone to waste. In those four years, more than sixty percent of the Survey Corps lost their lives. Sixty percent in four years...an insane figure. Any trainees who join will participate in our excursion beyond the walls, in a month. We expect thirty percent won't return. In four years, most will be dead. But those who survive will become superior soldiers with a high survival rate. Knowin these discouraging facts, any still willing to risk their lives, remain here. Ask yourself...are you willing to offer your beating heart for humanity?" Erwin stated firmly. Carmina took a deep breath and stood firm.
