2) Charlotte Llewellyn, Jonathan Llewellyn
Daddy was a soldier
he taught me about freedom
peace and all the great things
that we can take advantage of

Charlotte Llewellyn sat down next to Edward Elric. "I believe we didn't meet yet," she said with her calm and always serene voice, "but my name is Charlotte Llewellyn. I always wanted to meet you in person but sadly, I was never able to talk with you yet." She looked around in the huge hall in the Fuhrer's mansion before she slowly shook her head. "I never thought that I would ever return," she said quietly before her eyes roamed over the portrait of her father. "I really missed this place."
"Home is where the heart lies, they say," Edward stated with a little shrug. "I heard from Major General Bastard that your father was the Fuhrer before Bradley … so you are a woman born and raised in the military, right?"
She sighed deeply. "My father … he disliked Bradley," she said. "I would say that he shared the same awareness of our surroundings Riza, Laila and I have. To him, King Bradley was an unfit heir of the throne. He saw this man as a weak creature…"
"Your father was murdered, wasn't he?"
"Yeah…" the first lady said softly. "A man like him … is rare. He had dreams, you know? He had a goal … and in the end, he died for this goal. I always wanted to be like him. I wanted to be a strong, dependable person … someone, everyone could love and idolise. But I failed, I failed miserably. Well, I got to shot the assassin who killed my father but I failed to uncover his identity. And my father died too young. He planned to stay in power until someone he trusted could take over for him."
"Someone like you, some would guess."
"And they would guess right. Since I was born, my father told me about all the wonderful things, we could have if there would be peace. I dream of peace for my country since I turned eight," the first lady said with a little shrug. "Peace and freedom are things we lost on our way. Amestris is nothing better than it used to be when we abolished slavery in 1547. We made nearly no progress over the past few centuries. Well, we got electricity but still, we are nothing. My father saw this truth long before anyone could see it. He saw all the things Bradley never saw … my father saw the homeless; he saw the people who needed help … our whole social system was created by him. Did you ever wonder why we still speak of the Llewellyn pot when we speak of the budget the government has for the poor? My father was the one who made this. He did so much for a country … he even sacrificed his own life."
