"Nothing can be achieved if you are not prepared to sacrifice something of equal value. This is the base of all alchemy, so in accordance with this law living transmutation is strictly forbidden - for nothing could equal the value of a living soul."

This is reality, and all those that do not adhere with these warnings must pay a steep price. 10 years ago, an alchemical accident occurred within the Griffon Empire that left it without its Prince, who disappeared into the desert with only the bag behind his back and without a single word of his destination. Rumors have spread far and wide about this mysterious alchemist after he fled his homeland, a drunken fool by some and a ruthless killer by others. There is one thing for certain as the desert merchants have all said - "for he is the wandering spirit with the bronze wings on his back"

Such rumours never interested Firefly; the famous "Concord Flame" of Bardingburgh: the great Desert Empire north of Equestria, until she gets word said Alchemist has appeared in her capital stirring up trouble, with a troublesome beak to boot. It only annoys her more to end up escorting the deranged Prince under orders, a job easier said than done. For everything in the shadows want him dead, whether it's a monster of the present or a relic of the past, something about this 'Prince of Alchemists' is more than she could have ever imagined.

A story of entwined fate and broken promises to be fulfilled.

Characters and settings taken from Equestria Prevails go support his works because he is a splendid artist and I can't stop writing about his artwork. Alchemical abilities and laws are taken from Full Metal Alchemist by Hiromu Arakawa. This story is not a crossover, except for a few minor references.
