| It has been stated multiple times, that transmutation of soul (resurrecting people) is total taboo, meaning mere attempt is completely illegal, because there is no such thing that equals to the price of human soul and attempting the ritual has dire consequences. What Al and Ed managed to create with their botched ritual was just an empty, soulless doll, that has been created with ingredients they've provided. It became briefly animated and moved a bit at the cost of Ed's arm and leg and Al's whole body, but the doll quickly died away. |

Heyhelllo said: Completed the series and has a lot of question What thing they bring back if it wasn't their mother? Why didn't there mother came back to life in exchange of al soul and body ( ed soul and body= mother body and soul)?. How ed was able to exchange al soul to bind in armour ( arm shouldn't be equal to soul) ? How ed defeated truth in end ( gate of truth should have more value than a body) ? In end truth says "take everything"then why didn't he asked his mom too? Why did ed draw circle at end if he had already seen truth? Is there only one truth or every portal have different truth? I'd like to answer most of them, but it would take too long to explain briefly, which is a bit bothersome (in Sloth's voice). But well... 1) Just a living creature, that didn't live too much. 2) Bringing back the dead isn't possible which was told many times throughout the story. 3) That's up to the TRUTH. Ed said "Take whatever you want but give him back", although only the soul came back not the body, so the truth may have considered Alphonse to be Ed's right-hand man and gave the soul as equivalent change. 4) Because that's the only way to beat the Truth is to give up trying to use Alchemy to solve problems. 5) "Take everything" but can you take something that doesn't exist, anymore? If you had asked why he didn't get Alchemy back that would have been a more appropriate question. 6) Don't mix up day-to-day or normal alchemy with human transmutation. Even homunculus had prepared a circle during forced Mustang transmutation. 7) Truth is one but with different appearances and shapes. When the dwarf homunculus entered the Gate, he appeared in the Dwarf's original form when he lived in the flask, and it was different from Izumi's or Elric's brother's case. |
