[That evening, he calls back Mustang's Forge. There's...nothing he can think of to preface it, so he just launches into what needed to be said.]
Time in this world does not match up with that in our own--I'm certain you've become aware of that by now. But aside from that...the Door has a habit of bringing people here from different times in their world. No one knows how, and certainly not why.
The last time I saw you, we were not allies, as I've since learned we'd become. I...was told about the incident underneath Central. [A slight pause.] With the homunculus. I have no memory of it myself.
Regardless, you needn't concern yourself with the possibility of being attacked, at least not on my account. I've no interest in pursuing the life I led in Amestris. I gave my word as such to your lieutenant months ago, and now I give it to you.
In return, I ask that you not reveal who I was to those living in this city, most of whom are not from our world. Equivalent Exchange, State Alchemist.
