[/i][/right][/color] ``Sacrifice~[/pre]"To obtain, something of equal value must be lost."
"This is Alchemy's first law."
[/right][/blockquote][/size][/font]Alphonse Heiderich's death has cast a sorrowful mood upon the Elric brothers, Edward and Alphonse, as they travel through Germany. They have parted with their lives in Amestris, and live on on the other side of the Gate.
But what they don't know is that Dante survived their attack.
Dante has revived the seven Sins and has been working to create her own army of loyal Homunculus servants. She has joined up with other alchemists and created multiple incomplete Philosopher's Stones in Amestris.
The only ones that Dante believes who actually have the talent to create the true Stone are the Elrics, who are currently lost on the other side of the Gate. She sends Envy, who doesn't remember the Elrics at all, to get them back.
Not even a year has passed in Germany, and Hohenheim's sacrifice weighs heavily on Edward's chest. When Envy makes it through the Gate, he finds Edward and Alphonse and drags them back through the Gate with him.
Edward, Alphonse and Envy get separated inside of the Gate. The Elrics are spat out in Rizenbul, their hometown, and Envy is released back into Dante's mansion, bringing news of success.
The Elrics are back in Amestris, and news travels fast. Edward is accepted back into the Military as a State Alchemist, resuming his old title of "Fullmetal."
Dante is still after the Philosopher's Stone, and she is making plans to attack Edward.
The Military goes on, unaware of these plans.
Meanwhile, in Rizenbul, Alphonse has fallen ill. His ability to detach parts of his soul is just a cover up for what's really going on. His soul wasn't fully attached to his body, and his flesh is starting to reject his spirit. Edward reasons that with the Philosopher's Stone, he'll be able to secure Al's soul to his body and keep him alive.
With Al's condition deteriorating, will they succeed in obtaining the Stone to cure him? Or will Ed be made to create the Stone for Dante and make the final
SACRIFICE
?
