Icarus

The first time Ed heard the story of Icarus it was just that, a story. Maybe a little more interesting than most of the stories Mother told, but that was all. The second time Ed heard the story of Icarus, it was a warning. Icarus hadn't been careful enough; Ed and Al would have to be even more careful in their attempt to transmute their mother. Ed stares down at the old book in his hands. He wasn't careful enough.

He realizes his eyes are blurring. Stupid dust.

Now when he hears the story of Icarus, Ed hears about himself.
