Edward Elric, a brilliant young alchemist, has lost quite a bit in his twelve years of life. When he and his brother Alphonse tried to revive their mother through the forbidden act of human transmutation, Edward lost his brother as well as two of her body. However, he managed to save the soul of his brother by embedding her in armor. A year later, Edward has become a state alchemist. He has embarked on a journey in the company of his younger brother to obtain a Philosopher’s Stone. Which is said to expand an alchemist’s ability and open the possibility of recovering the body of his brother and his lost limbs.
