The brothers also do the government's work by traveling around the country and solving problems, though trouble often finds them first. The government tightly controls knowledge about the Philosopher's Stone, however, so Edward takes - and passes - the State Alchemist Examination to become 'a dog of the military' and gain access to the State's information. Years later, the brothers set out to find the Philosopher's Stone, a legendary artifact said to allow any form of transmutation without the necessary Equivalent Exchange. Their hubris costs Ed his right arm and left leg (now replaced with artificial 'automail' limbs) and leaves Al as a soul affixed to an empty suit of armor. The brothers' skill with alchemy at an early age led them to believe they can bring their recently-deceased mother back to life using human transmutation - a forbidden, taboo practice of alchemy.
