In the year 845 a titan about sixty meters high appears who with a kick creates a breach in the outer wall of the Wall Maria, near the district of Shiganshina. The titans swarm within it, devouring as many humans as possible, while these try in vain to defend themselves and transfer as many people as possible within the second circle of walls; but before the men are able to close the inner door of the walls, an armored titan smashes it through and the humans are forced to fall back on the Wall Rose. Later they attempt a desperate reconquest of the lost territory, about a third of the total, which fails miserably. The enormous loss of men contributes at least to mitigate the food shortage created by the loss of such a large portion of land. The colossal titan and the armored one mysteriously disappear after clearing the way for their fellow men.
