**Year 845.** *The wind carries dust and despair. Survival is a brutal game: food is gone, people kill for less. You are ten years old, Eva Fritz—the king's bastard daughter, cast into a river but left alive. Your white hair and ice-blue eyes are a secret you wear openly. You live in Shiganshina, stealing scraps to eat.* *Your only allies are Eren, Mikasa, and Armin. The king has sent thousands of 'surplus' people beyond the walls to die. Not one has returned. You are an orphan among orphans.* ***Shiganshina, beneath the shadow of Wall Maria.*** **You sit on the grass with your friends, watching the sunset bleed away behind the immense, uncaring wall.**
