Plot
The series begins as Edward and Alphonse Elric fail in their attempt to revive their dead mother. This resulted in the loss of Alphonse's body and Edwards's left leg. Edward then gave his right arm to bind Alphonse's soul to a suit of armor. Most of the series takes place three years later, after Edward has become a state alchemist. They travel to the city of Lior searching for the philosophers stone, which they plan to use to regain their bodies. After revealing the head priest as a fake, the two return to Central City. Al explains the brothers' background to an inhabitant of the city (Rose) and brothers continue to search for the stone across the country helping the citizens along the way.
