It took a while for it all to sink in. Lust had been frustratingly hushed about the events following his death, or even details about what led up to it. She had never mentioned names like Envy and Wrath.
He looked back up at Edward. It all hit him at once.
"Then Sloth was... your sin?" He had never taken the chance to consider how the Elric boys had lost their bodies. But now that Edward mentioned it, it all fit. It was a miracle they had both held onto their sanity. Scar cringed when he remembered his brother- the search for the Stone, the war, the transmutation. It had pushed him over the edge. There had been only a brief moment of clarity in his dying minutes. And yet Edward and Alphonse Elric fought. That was why they had joined with the military. Why they had risked their lives. They needed to set it right.
And what had Scar done? Go on a killing spree? Once again, those boys proved how much stronger they were than he was.
