The Mountain that Swallows, 'Mount Nyangani'
Dark mysteries abound in the wild, untamed stretches of the African continent. There are many of them in this land, including odd animals, enigmatic tribes, and natural wonders of all kinds. In addition to the breathtaking natural beauty, there are enigmatic spots here that have eluded human comprehension for millennia. These are places shrouded in mystery and frequently the subject of dark legends, myths, and unexplained phenomena. One such location is a mysterious, foreboding mountain in Zimbabwe's far regions. It is known as "The Mountain That Swallows" because of the myths and peculiar mysteries that abound there. Among its many strangeness is the unsettling tendency of not letting some people go, as though they are disappearing from the face of the planet. The geographical feature known as the Nyangani Mountain is located in a Mediterranean woodland deep within Zimbabwe. With a summit elevation of 8504 feet, the peak is the highest point in the nation. However, there is more to the tale. Myths about the area's curse and dark magic even piqued the interest of a British visitor, Thomas Gaisford age 20 year, who ventured out to examine Mount Nyangani in November 2014. The mountain legend was so stunning that the local tribes would weave fantastic tales about vengeful ghosts on the prowl, sinister sorcery, and treacherous portals between worlds that imprison spirits. Elders from the tribe have long cautioned that observing the mountain's regulations and keeping the numerous wandering spirits under constant surveillance at bay is important. Gaisford was one of the applicants who survived the mountain, but his account of the ordeal left everyone horrified since he claimed to have seen menacing snakes enveloping him without taking any action. And according to the to the translation by spirit mediums these were not animals from this world.

After Zeke's demise, the rumbling ceases. Aaron needs to be in contact with someone of Royal Blood to activate the rumbling; with Zeke gone, it stops. Aaron cannot restart it unless he somehow involves Historia. Mikasa has a sudden realization that her final encounter with Aaron cannot be their last, given his lies about the Ackerman gene and harming Armin. As the Colossal Titan emerges from the crater, Armin's despair is evident as he realizes that he had to kill his own brother. The struggle between the Hallucigenia and Reiner is crucial, as the Hallucigenia is the organism responsible for creating the first founding Titan. Aaron, still alive, transforms into a hulking Colossal Titan, similar to Armin, due to Ymir Fritz granting him the power. Aaron and Armin engage in an epic battle as Colossal Titans. Meanwhile, the Hallucigenia emits smoke, causing those on Fort Salta to inhale it, potentially turning them into Titans with a delayed transformation. Levi instructs Pieck and Mikasa to escape on Falco, as the Ackerman and Titan Shifters are unaffected. The pressure leads to a breaking point for Pieck, showcasing her resilience. Levi and Pieck understand what needs to be done, linked to their commitment to protect their comrades.

This change symbolizes Aaron's renewed care for Mikasa. Additionally, Mikasa's restored hair reflects Aaron's perspective of her.
