However, his lack of knowledge of noble etiquette and social graces are the least of his problems. Caught between many influential figures such as the crown prince, the prince's fiancé, the future captain of the guard, and the Academy's special student, each seeking something of him, his loyalty to the alchemist's creed will be put to the test. The curtain rises on the story of a young alchemist who holds the fate of far more than he knows in his hands...
