When Alphonse was a child the whole wide world seemed to be endless. When he looked at maps so long ago, he closed his eyes and pointed and that would be the place where they were going to play that day, even if they couldn't pronounce or even read the name! Touching and pointing at the maps now, he felt nothing, no joy about the journey to explore, no excitement over the unknown. Now when he pointed, the places he touched, through never felt, were missions and clues to find his brother's body and his own, it stole the fun and made him seem even older than he was.
