Full Plot Summary

Once they arrive in Resembool, Edward and Armstrong meet up with Heymans Breda, who takes them to the ruins of Xerxes. Once there, they discover that Ross is still alive, and that Mustang faked her death in order to draw out those responsible for Hughes' death. After the brief reunion, Ross decides to hide out in Xing with Fu, but promises to return if she is ever needed. After Ross' departure, Edward explores the ruins further and encounters a group of Ishbalan refugees, who reveal that it was Scar who had killed Winry's parents during the Ishbal civil war. Meanwhile, Barry's human body, which is now nothing more than a crazed animal, attacks Falman and Barry back in Central. However, with the assistance of Jean Havoc, they manage to subdue Barry's human body. Hawkeye, also there with them, is then attacked by Gluttony.
