What is life?
What is it, if we're condemned
to a cattle-esque existence behind walls?
Walls that can be broken
Walls that were broken
Walls that broke our livestock complacency
When letting in the monsters of a century ago...
The worst thing in this world
is being helpless.
Helpless to the monsters
that consumed our friends.
Consumed our most loved ones
leaving us staring and crying
wondering how...
...how we could be trodden so easily.
Presented with the power
what would you do?
The power to become one of them
Matching fire's strength with fire
Destroy the ones who destroyed your mother's life
What would you do?
Would you do anything?
Anything that means
joining the ranks,
being a member of humanity's worse casualty rate,
venturing outside your protective shell
to the world our ancestors locked us out of?
What would you do,
knowing that there are many, many others like you,
others who have the same power as you, who gained it because of lack of power,
and they could hold the answers?
Would you do anything then,
when humanity's fate is a heavy bag on your shoulders,
with a death sentence trailing you
because you have the power to become
a monster?
The answer is
I would do anything.
Channel the rage of humiliation
Use it to fight; crush the oppression!
The age-old wall watches us with a tired eye.
Surprise it;
fight back!
Don't be the hunted
Let us become
Hunters!
Making the change we've wished for
to be able to life beyond protective gates
and see the wonders our ancestors have known.
Like, say,
a body of water
stretching across the earth
filled with salt.
Ocean.
A friend told me about this.
One of the many prizes of not living in the pasture.
To fight alongside the ones you care for
-Mikasa, Armin-
And protect the ones you're looking out for
while casting away the fear of dying.
The resistance has started, with the power to become one of them
The power to become a Titan
And end the war.
Become a hunter.
Become a hero.
Become...
Free.
