tangled memories

Blossomed from hatred, love, and alchemy, as the myth says, the hia-non flower is the most rare and powerful of the alchemy relics. The power within its purple tipped petals is unmeasurable, and is said to cure any illness, create any item, and ignore the sacred law of equivelant exchange. Hundreds of times more powerful than the philosophers stone, this flower, which bloomed only once every ten years, stopped wars in the making, and saved millions of people. It caused desolation and chaos as well. This was untill the war of ishbal. Trampled by greedy and savage alchemists and humans alike, the flower wilted, and died, and only a single petal was saved, and hidden.
