[Narrator]:Alchemy-the science of understanding,deconstructing, and reconstructing matter.however,it is not an all powerful art.it is impossible to create something out of nothing.if one wishes to obtain something.something of equal value must be given. This is the law of Equivalent Exchange... the basis of all alchemy in accordance with this law,there is a taboo among alchemists.human transmutation is strictly forbidden.for what could equal the value of a human soul?

Some kind of object that amplifies alchemy.and That's the Philosopher's Stone.If we had this, we could just get our hands on it somehow,I might be able to get your body back.Damn books! They tell us everything but how to find it?
