That's not all...
There's more?!
If she really was alive, she would as least be in her fifties. But the Julia who's the Fuhrer's secretary is in her thirties, no matter how you look at her! She doesn't die when she's killed, and she doesn't age...what is she? It's all inexplicable, but after thinking frantically, I've reached a hypothesis.
A hypothesis?
With this hypothesis, all the discrepancies made sense. Julia Douglas is...an alien.
How long until we get to Ishbal?
You're looking at it. At least what is left of Ishbal anyway.
It's worse than I imagined.
These is really nothing left at all.
Scar wouldn't be here, we are back to square one.
What exactly are you looking for anyway.
The Philosopher's Stone. Someone told us it was created here a long time ago, before Ishbal was destroyed.
That's impossible. If the Ishbalans were capable of something like that, they would have put up some kind of resistance.
Resistance? What do you mean? There was armed tension between the military and Ishbal for years before the war broke out. and when it did, it was because of an Ishbalan revolt, in reaction to a soldier accidentally shooting a child.
So that's the way they told it? I always wondered what they would say. But I never got to know; I was locked up in Lab. 5 for 14 years.
But that was when the tension first started, you would've just been a kid.
I may look young because of the experiments, but I'm actually old enough to be your mom.
That old? I mean wow.
We were special op soldiers who don't officially exist. They didn't brief us on our assignment until moments before we had to move out. That's the way it always was. [flashback to what actually started the war] We were ordered to infiltrate Ishbal and cause disruptive activities on a large scale. We wer told that they were planning an attack on Central, and we had to prevent it, covertly. And anyone who say us, could not be left alive.
But why would the military start a war without provocation? And how come no one stepped up to tell our people what really happened.
No one ever knew about it.
You did.
Well let me finish my story.
No not again. Ew, weird.
I think I'm missing your point.
Wait. It is a visual. Right after the war in Ishbal started, we were all taken into custody without explanation. It wasn't smart to resist. Those of us that lived became the rats of Lab. 5.
They turned you into cameras.
They preferred to further their research and silence us at the same time. But why?
They didn't want the real reason for the war to get out. It is part of some greater truth.
But what the hell for? How could they profit from Ishbal?
Someone is here
Yea, our next lead. Stop!
Alright. Fess up. What in the hell are you guys doing out here following us?
The [?] has limits to the civilians.
We are here under orders. We are supposed to check on the security of old Ishbal region.
Then why didn't you come ask us about instead of hiding like a couple of spies?
My brother may not look it, but he is a state alchemist, and tough one.
What are these guys, moles?
I think I recognize those voices.
Hey
It's you guys? That means the colonel is here too.
It's okay, Al. You don't have to pretend to eat in front of us.
Oh. Okay. [puts back the bread he was about to give Marta, who is hidden in Al's armor]
[quietly] Okay, hag. You're dead!
Can't say I was expecting to see you here Ed.
Yea, I get it. Can't see me because I'm too short to distinguish me from all the grains of sand. Very funny.
I understand that you have been making quite a mess of things. Southern Headquarters? And an escort train full of Ishbalans? No more. From now on you will be working under my command.
But colonel...
You were lucky Havoc's patrol picked you up. It is dangerous out here.
But you knew how we work. We should be able to conduct our own investigation.
It's the rules Al. I'm their dog. when war starts they put me back on their leash.
War?
Just look around you. They've come on a military train armed to the teeth.
But who are we at war with?
Calm down. We are just suppressing a regional uprising.
Our objective is a city about two kilometers to the southeast. And that's it.
Big gins for a peacekeeping mission.
You think so?
Why don't you come out and say it? Scar is your real target. Truth is, we're looking for him too.
Why Scar? What is your need to catch him?
He is a wanted man, isn't he? If we don't there will be trouble later.
Don't be silly Al. You don't have to go through the trouble pretending to eat.
Alright. Sorry.
What's that?
Pictures of our target city, from our new surveillance balloon.
I don't believe it. Is this right?
a Grand Arcanum Transmutation circle around the entire city. Who would do such a thing?
Scar.
Why would you say that?
You wouldn't happen to know the motives behind that Ed.
No. This city, what is it called?
It's Lior sir. Last year, the so-called prophet of the city stepped down. And the military was hoping that it could go in and restore the peace.
That do Fuery. He is familiar with its past.
I don't get it. An armed uprising in Lior?
That doesn't make any sense. They were committed to peace after we exposed Cornello.
Not for long. The priest came back and Lior was divided between those that supported him and those that opposed him. The only thing you really accomplished was stirring up the debate. Now both sides are against us.
Why didn't anyone tell me all this? as far as I knew, we helped.
I got the report from Hues, and I made the decision not to tell you.
Why?!
Because it was too big for you.
[sniffs the air] Yes. He's here. I can smell the beast of Ishbal.
You're going to the front lines?
I very well can't let Lior become another Ishbal. We must end this as quickly and quietly as possible.
Yes, of course sir.
You are going to have to act as lieutenant fuehrer in my absence.
You are seriously ready to do that sir?
Do you accept?
Yes. Lieutenant Fuehrer. Lieutenant Fuehrer. I finally made it. This is so...
And some some nice chocolates and flowers to my wife will you? She gets lonely when I'm gone. I'm counting on you.
It appears another city must be annihilated for the sake of the Philosopher's Stone.
If you have come all this way to find me, then you must have some knowledge of what I am planning.
Yea, there is a rumor that you are trying to do something really stupid, like create the Philosopher's Stone.
You shouldn't interfere.
Now this is interesting.
There is something important that I have been meaning to ask you Scar. Four years ago there was a camera in Central--part human, part dog.
I returned their souls to Ishbala.
You killed a little girl.
Out of mercy. What else could you have done for her?
Those are not the kinds of decisions that we are allowed to make damnit.
Anything else you would like to say now?
With that kind of messed up logic, you probably think that it is okay to sacrifice Rose and her people too.
How is it that you know about Rose?
Does that make me a threat?
What is this?
You don't get what is going on? You're not much an alchemist, are you?
This arm does alchemy, not me.
Not true. Alchemy is understanding a composition, breaking it down, then remaking it as something else. You have been instinctive figuring out your enemy's design then adjusting that arm's alchemy to destroy them. But if you don't know what that substance is, you don't know how to break it down, so I've been transmuting my automail into other metals to keep you guessing.
Now I understand.
But I can't keep this up forever because these other metals have some different physical properties and it is screwing up the entire design; so I am going to have to make this quick. You idiot. What makes you think you can sacrifice an entire city for your cause? You have no right to play God with these innocent people like that.
Have you forgotten Edward? I can destroy human flesh as well.
I hate you! I hate you for hurting my Lust!
Knowing what I do now, I understand why.
I talked to the Exile. He told me about the method. The Grand Arcanum circle takes an even greater human sacrifice.
It's true. An entire major city would have to be turned to an open grave or an entire race of people wiped from the face of the planet. all those souls displaced, angry, still crying in sorrow at their loss, are pulled into the array and form the Philosopher's Stone. In a cruel paradox, the Philosopher's Stone was the only way to save Ishbal, and yet it would take the entire genocide of its people to create it.
Your brother turned his body into a transmutation circle to make the Philosopher's Stone inside him. He was taking in the souls of all the Ishbalans dying in the war. And that is why your arm can deconstruct things.
That's correct, because it is part of the transmutation. It is looking for ingredients--souls for the stone.
And that is why it reacted with the stone fragments Marcoh made. It senses the lives inside and sucks them in.
But it hasn't been enough. In order to complete it, I still need more lives.
You think that gives you the right to use Rose as some charismatic puppet while you sacrifice her people for your stone?
Calm down. You have misunderstood his tactics. Scar isn't going to kill anyone from Lior.
Tell me Lyra, what the hell are you doing here anyway?
After Dante was murdered, I didn't know what else to do. I went searching for a place where I could do good with alchemy. Here, I learned about Scar and his plans for justice. You don't have to worry Ed. Right before the attack, the people of Lior will escape through a secret passage below the church. When the military invades, Scar will active the array.
Soldiers have lives just like us. I don't care what you think of the military, they are still...[Rose appears]
You have no idea what the soldiers have done to the people of Lior.
Like what? What did they do to Rose?
A group of them carried her to their base. Whatever they did to her there, it was traumatic enough that she couldn't speak when she returned. My sympathy will not be spent on soldiers, neither should yours.
So the Fuehrer himself has come to see me. I'm flattered.
I have an assignment for you, A secret one. I want you to take doctor Tucker's cameras into Lior. Don't be spotted.
Oh, I get it. I cause just enough trouble that the rebels retaliate, then we can claim they started it. Brilliant.
I designed these cameras to defend us, not attack.
Preemption is a difficult concept for people to understand. we will be able to explain the matter better if they attack first. Also, I've been told a state alchemist has already gone into Lior and not returned.
Yes, Edward Elric.
I have no doubt those zealots have killed him. Make certain you bring back his corpse.
Of course, an even better reason for war; people love a martyr. Trust me, if he is not dead yet, he will be soon.
It really is a shame.
So it all starts again, does it? False wars? Murdered soldiers? Well I won't let it and I won't let you kill Ed. Call off your orders or else.
Your agile moves won't work against me, Snake-Chimera. I have the Ultimate Eye.
(to self)The Elrics, I have to tell them.
