Neither good nor evil, they are life in its purest form. Vulgar and strange, they have inspired fear in humans since the dawn of time and have, over the ages, come to be known as “mushi.” 1. To reenact the phoenix with water in place of flame, miracles tarry on the breath of the dying. When a single day carries the weight of a lifetime, one will choose to live on the other side of time. 2. The seed of a man driven mad by fading beauty. The search for a mimic of an illusion. While not a one should live only for the sake of living, false errand proves no better excuse for waste. 3. A marriage caught in the birth of a legend. Both will lose something already mislaid, guilt will leave one to endure. But where the semblance of love must be left behind, sorrow and solace await. 4. One man, responsible for a village destroying itself, unaware. The cycle of life and death, the equation unbalanced, requires knowing sacrifice. Here, eternal repentance will bear the greatest fruit.
Alchemy is the art of taking matter and forming it into something else. Brothers Edward and Alphonse Elric are naturals for this art. One of the principal concepts of Alchemy is the Law of Equivalent Exchange. This law simply states that in order to gain something, you have to give up something of equal value. But with this law come two taboos of alchemy: turning objects into gold, and human transmutation.
