It sounds something like that anyway. I can't imagine someone high-up in society wanting this type of shit though, they're better off sitting on top of their hill of peasants. It sounds more like some lower-class revolutionaries got their hands on some long-lost samples and true history of how the titans came about.

Does that mean the walls were built by "good" titans before they died out? Ideally, Eren should stay within the walls and act as the absolute guard against titans. If all the colossal wants to do is kick a hole for the normal ones, then Eren should just stand at the bottleneck with some weapon that Armin devises.

Or, you know.. don't cover those pits near the entrance that you humans took so long to dig.
