Ep. 10: Elrics assist Aquroya police in hunting alchemist thief Psiren while questioning her motives

10

Following their exposure of Cornello in Lior, the Elrics travel to Aquroya and become involved in a manhunt for Psiren, an alchemist cat burglar. The local police chief persuades the brothers to capture her, but she deceives them three times by claiming she steals to save buildings from demolition. Despite her pleas, a building is still destroyed. Alphonse believes Psiren is good and attempts to stop Edward from arresting her. Edward eventually catches Psiren, but she escapes. He later recognizes her value as a tourism draw for the sinking city of Aquroya, acknowledging her complex role in the community despite her criminal actions.
