Marta realizes he is headed for Dante's house and tries to go after him, but Al refuses to allow her to do so. When Greed arrives at Dante's, he is greeted by Lyra, who knows his purpose for returning to Dante's. She guides him to a parlor, where he discovers Dante's body split down the middle, seemingly by a sword, and a complex alchemy circle on the ceiling and floor. Before he has time to react, Lyra uses alchemy to forcibly eject the Philosopher's Stone fragments that Greed has consumed in his life. She exits, leaving him in pain, as Ed enters. Shocked at Dante's corpse, he blames her death on Greed. While they fight, Ed discovers the secret to his human shield through logic, and uses alchemy to undo it. He manages to stab Greed in through the chest, which surprisingly causes Greed to collapse in pain. Greed explains to Edward that the only way to kill a homunculus without its regeneration is to physically murder one near the human remains that it was created with, and he also reveals that he let Al go. Greed departs this information with Ed in hopes of ensuring the deaths of the rest of the homunculi, and then he dies, much to the shock of Ed who has never killed before.

They catch up in the restaurant, where a flashback shows us how Lust and Gluttony watch the results of a landslide and its victims. As they watch, a rescue crew approaches, containing Lujon, and he rescues a girl from the pile. Meanwhile, the Elrics and Winry, while riding in a cart South to the Ishbalan camp, must save a girl from a band of thugs in the forest. She reveals her name is Lydia, and that she is looking for a man named Lujon, who is supposed to be finding a second Philosopher's Stone to save the people of their village from the return of a plague. This illness looks similar to Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (also called Lewandowsky–Lutz dysplasia, colloquially known as tree man illness). As Lujon, Lust, and Gluttony ride back together to his village, Lujon reveals that the power in his Philosopher's Stone has waned considerably. The flashback continues, revealing how Lujon's failed attempts to cure the first onslaught of the plague provoked Lust into teaching him the refined arts of alchemy. As they study together, Lujon falls in love with her; however, Lust only stays with him because he invokes faint memories in her mind that she cannot identify. Once he has learned the secrets to curing the illness, he manages to save his fiance Lydia from death's grip. On the day of their wedding, Lujon leaves her at the altar for Lust, who unsuccessfully commands her to go to him. Once he leaves, she laughs with Envy about the success of their plan. In present time, Lujon embraces Lust in the village before saving his people, exclaiming how he won't let her leave him this time. Before he can let her go, Lust stabs him dead.

Meanwhile, with Hawkeye's help, Mustang has sneaked into the Führer's mansion to confront him and avenge Hughes.

Envy appears at the Gate of Truth, having failed to stop Alphonse, and encounters Edward's soul. Learning that Hohenheim is still alive on the other side, Envy gleefully decides to head through to kill him against Edward's advice, disappearing into the distance as a green, serpentine dragon. Edward reawakens to see his body fully healed as well as his right arm and left leg are now flesh and blood. However, Alphonse has been taken by the Gate of Truth as a consequence. After having Rosé take an injured Wrath with her and flee to Resembool, Edward attempts human transmutation, offering his own life, allowing Alphonse to return to his body, albeit his memory is recalled up to when the brothers tried to resurrect their mother. Meanwhile, Mustang successfully kills Führer Bradley with the help of his son Selim, who unintentionally weakens his adoptive father by bringing him the remains of the human from which the Führer was originally based. The Führer responsively strangles his son to death out of anger before Mustang takes his advantage. As he takes Selim's body and leaves the mansion, Mustang is confronted by Archer, who apparently shoots him in the left eye. Hawkeye arrives in time to save Mustang's life and kills Archer.

The Elric brothers, Edward and Alphonse, have already made a strong reputation for themselves despite Edward's short military career.

Edward and Alphonse ambush and successfully capture their target. However, Edward becomes enraged by McDougal calling him 'small' and McDougal finds an opening and escapes. The Elric brothers and the state military are forced to confront McDougal again when he simultaneously activates numerous transmutation circles in Central. This creates an alchemic reaction encompassing the entire command center. Edward suspects the use of a philosopher's stone, but is unable to confirm his suspicion. Luckily, the Elric brothers, Major Alex Louis Armstrong, and Mustang succeed in thwarting McDougal's plans to bury Central in ice. The Führer confronts McDougal as he attempts to escape.

To prevent the loss of his brother, Edward bonds Alphonse's soul to a suit of armor, sacrificing his right arm to complete the process. Elsewhere in the present, Colonel Maes Hughes shows Mustang the paperwork concerning the McDougal incident, which states that McDougal used a little-known Xingese art known as alkahestry.

Underground, Edward and Izumi, with an unconscious Alphonse, reappear in Father's lair to find Hohenheim subdued and embedded within the Homunculus. With four of the five human sacrifices in hand, Father is left to wait for the fifth. The gold-toothed doctor in the levels above, orders Hawkeye's throat to be slit, telling Mustang that he will only save her if he performs human transmutation as the fifth candidate, to which he agrees.
59	'Lost Light' Transcription: 'Ushinawareta Hikari' (Japanese: 失われた光)	May 30, 2010^[88]	August 20, 2011^[86]
After Mustang agrees to perform a human transmutation, Hawkeye signals him with her eyes and he refuses to proceed. Suddenly, May arrives with Jerso, Zampano and Darius who take control while May stops Hawkeye's bleeding. At that moment, Bradley (Wrath) appears and picks up the philosopher's stone dropped on the floor. However, Pride also arrives and they force Mustang to perform a human transmutation, using the gold-toothed doctor as a sacrifice. Mustang passes through the Gate of Truth and appears in Father's lair with Pride and the other sacrifices, finding he has lost his eyesight in exchange. While Scar battles Wrath in the chamber above Father's lair, May crashes through the ceiling to find Alphonse unconscious. Meanwhile, Alphonse stands before the gate and sees his frail body, despairing that it cannot be used to fight alongside the others. Leaving, he promises to return for his body and returns through the gate. Regaining consciousness in Father's lair, Alphonse completes the count of five sacrifices for the Homunculus.
60	'Eye of Heaven, Gateway of Earth' Transcription: 'Ten no Hitomi, Chi no Tobira' (Japanese: 天の瞳、地の扉)	June 6, 2010^[89]	August 27, 2011^[86]
Edward and Alphonse battle Pride, as May takes on the Homunculus Father herself. Above ground, the Ishvalans lay alkahestry transmutation circles throughout Amestris. In his continuing fight against Wrath, Scar uses a reconstruction transmutation circle from his brother's research which is now tattooed on his other arm. Edward's group starts to gain the upper hand against Father, but despite the arrival of Greed, Father grabs the four sacrifices and Hohenheim to create his transmutation circle as the solar eclipse reaches its zenith. The transmutation absorbs all the souls in Amestris and gives Father enough power to open a gateway from earth, allowing him to unlock the entrance to Heaven and absorb the Being within, the Eye of God.
61	'He Who Would Swallow God' Transcription: 'Kami o Nomikomishi Mono' (Japanese: 神を呑みこみし者)	June 13, 2010^[90]	September 3, 2011^[86]
Those present in Father's lair survive the human transmutation, discovering the Homunculus has used over fifty million Amestrian souls to suppress the Eye of God within a reborn body. Father neutralizes the use of alchemy and prepares to annihilate them. However over the years, Hohenheim had placed fragments of his own philosopher's stone across the country to neutralize the transmutation circle. These stone fragments are activated by the eclipse's umbra, and the human souls are ripped from Father. He is weakened and forced to relinquish the Eye of God. Father then attacks Edward's group but May's alkahestry combined with Hohenheim's philosopher's stone resist him. Above, Scar manages to deliver a fatal blow when Bradley is blinded by sunlight as the sun re-emerges. Scar then activates the nationwide alkahestry circle prepared by his fellow Ishvalans which restores alchemy to its greatest potential. Father heads above ground searching for more souls to replenish his stone supply and is chased by Edward's team. Edward stays to fight Pride who attempts to replace his deteriorating body with Edward's. However, Kimblee's soul reappears thwarting him and enabling Edward to enter Pride's body and destroy it. Pride reverts to a small foetus-like creature which Edward spares and then he leaves to join his friends.
62	'A Fierce Counterattack' Transcription: 'Seizetsunaru Hangeki' (Japanese: 凄絶なる反撃)	June 20, 2010^[91]	September 10, 2011^[92]
Hohenheim and the others prevent Father from making more philosopher's stones. As Edward rejoins them, Father spawns humans resembling the people of Xerxes before attacking with a powerful blast which takes out half of the headquarters. They barely manage to survive the blast, but Alphonse and Hohenheim are heavily damaged protecting the others. Before Father can kill Edward and Izumi, the Briggs Fortress soldiers, along with several of Edward's allies, combine to attack Father and force him to exhaust his stone supply. Father lowers his barrier temporarily to try to absorb Greed's stone, giving Edward, Armstrong, and Izumi the opportunity to attack him to the point of needing to physically defend himself. As Father starts to lose control, he creates a blast which pins Edward's left arm while his automail right arm is destroyed. With Edward in danger, Alphonse convinces May to help him perform a transmutation, trading his soul for the return of Edward's right arm. Alphonse rejoins his body on the other side of the gate and, with his arm returned, Edward frees himself to unleash a series of powerful blows on Father.
63	'The Other Side of the Gateway' Transcription: 'Tobira no Mukōgawa' (Japanese: 扉の向こう側)	June 27, 2010^[93]	September 17, 2011^[92]
While being pummeled by Edward, Father desperately tries to absorb the philosopher's stone from Greed. However, Greed decides to part from Ling's body to protect Ling's soul, sacrificing himself by using his carbonization ability to turn Father's body into weak charcoal. Father extinguishes Greed's soul, but Edward punches through Father's chest, releasing all the souls of the people of Xerxes and sending Father through the Gate of Truth where he is trapped for eternity. In the wake of Father's defeat, everyone mourns Alphonse's sacrifice. Edward rejects using a philosopher's stone to bring him back to life, even after Hohenheim offers his final life as an apology for the pain suffered by the Elric brothers. Edward ultimately decides to perform a human transmutation on himself, sacrificing his own gate and his ability to ever again use alchemy with it. In return for trading his ability to perform alchemy, Edward is allowed to bring Alphonse back with him in his original body. As everyone recuperates from the battle, Hohenheim returns to Resembool and dies peacefully before Trisha's grave, grateful for having known her and his sons.
64	'Journey's End' Transcription: 'Tabiji no Hate' (Japanese: 旅路の涯)	July 4, 2010^[94]	September 24, 2011^[92]
While Mustang works towards resolving issues with the Ishvalan people, he is approached by Knox and Marcoh, who offer him a philosopher's stone to recover his eyesight. However, Mustang insists that it be used to restore Havoc's legs first. Meanwhile, Olivier secretly has Scar's wounds treated so that he can assist Miles in rebuilding Ishbal. The Elric brothers farewell Ling, who promises to take care of May's clan and the other clans once he becomes emperor, then they return to Resembool where Winry gives them a warm welcome. Meanwhile, Grumman has become Führer and two years later he visits Bradley's wife who had been raising Selim. Selim seems to be a compassionate child although he will continue to be monitored. Alphonse decides to travel with Kimblee's former chimeras, Jerso and Zampano, to Xing and other eastern countries to learn about alkahestry, while Edward learns what he can in the west, hoping to pull their research together. As Edward heads off, he and Winry awkwardly express their love for each other using the terms of equivalent exchange. The last scene shows a photograph of Ed and Winry, now married with two children, accompanied by Alphonse, May, Paninya, and Garfiel.
