Huh....

This isn't Lior. I'm not sure this is even where I got off the train.

I guess I should check in with the Colonel and get my orders...

Ah! Excuse me, but is there a military base nearby? Or, if not, a public phone I could use? I would very much appreciate it!

[OOC: Explanation is longer than the post. *dies*

Al's been Road Not Taken'd to a reality where he refused to help his brother with their mom. Ed attempted to resurrect her and died in the process, despite Al's frantic attempts to save him. Al has two automail hands which he wears gloves to hide. The rest of his body is fifteen and human. He joined the military in an attempt to find a way to bring his brother back. Personality-wise, he's mostly the same -- a little sadder and a little tougher. But he has a body! Yay!]

Twenty minutes ago I was on a train three days out of East City! I don't know what's happened.

I found the Colonel. I'll explain this to him.. somehow.

What is this device?

I rather think we'll be the ones explaining.

You're in the City. And it's a device that connects to the Network here, it's one of the main forms of communication.

I'm by a very large fountain.

East City has certainly changed in the last three days...

You're not paying attention.

It's not East City, Central City, or anywhere in Amestris, Alphonse.

I'm very sorry, Lieutenant, I just don't understand... what has happened.

Nor I, to you. But for now...

You've arrived in the City. It has a habit of stealing us from our worlds and dropping us off here. There's no way back. The Colonel's aware of the situation.

Why were you heading to Lior?

Lieutenant... you were there...

The Colonel had reports of a religious leader in possession of a possible stone there. From his briefing, I surmised that the item in question was probably not a philospher's stone, but that there were instabilities within the local hierarchy which he wished me to address while I investigated.

That was over a year ago. And Edward should have been with you.

I presume that is no longer the case.

You presume correctly.

As I recall it, you and Edward went to Lior some time ago to look into that.

With Edward.

If this is a joke, Lieutenant, that's very unkind of you.

When have I ever been flippant with you when it comes to information? If that's even the same.

Then what exactly did you mean about going there with my brother? We never traveled together before he died.

He would have died around 11, I assume?
