“'''Stone man awakened from sleep.'''Through the morning mists of The [[Land of Dawn]] strides the towering Fortress Titan, pausing to listen as migrating birds share tales from distant shores. Though it has weathered countless ages as the last creation of the Ancient Ones, it still sees the world with the wonderment of a child. Upon its shoulders rests a broken castle tower—a most unlikely weapon—while the very stones of its composition were a record of the Ancient Ones' brave defiance across these lands. It roams the [[Land of Dawn]] in an endless quest, seeking both its creators and kindred spirits who will carry on the legacy of the Ancients.”
