Shadis brought Grisha Yeager one day after she was discovered lost outside the Walls. Though both of them denied it, Carla chastised Shadis for attempting to persuade Grisha to enlist in the Survey Corps. Later on, Carla fell ill and was brought to Grisha, who was now a medical professional. After rescuing her and her family, he and her fell in love and welcomed a son, Eren. Carla asserted that being alive alone was unique, despite Shadis’s accusations to the contrary after his failed mission.

The tragic and complex event that is Eren Yeager’s role in his mother Carla Yeager’s death. Eren did not kill his mother directly, but the complex interactions of the Founding Titan’s abilities unintentionally linked him to her death. In the last episode, Eren tells Armin that the Founding Titan has twisted his sense of time, causing him to experience every moment simultaneously. The sequence of events leading up to Carla’s death is revealed by this revelation.

Motivated by a burning desire to save Bertholdt, Eren changed fate by steering the Dina Fritz Titan away from Bertholdt. But as a result of this unexpected outcome, Dina Fritz Titan ate Carla. Having a deep understanding of the ability to change time, Eren planned this sad event to inspire his younger self. The Smiling Titan, the first royally bred wife of Dina Fritz and Grisha Jaeger, turned into an Abnormal Titan, entwining her destiny with the complex web of Eldian history and rebellion.

Unfortunately, Eren caused the death of his mother by commanding the Titan form of Dina Fritz to eat her.
