As Edward, Alphonse, and Winry arrive in Rush Valley, Edward's state alchemist pocket watch is stolen by a pickpocket named Paninya, who has automail legs. After tracking her down, Winry asks her automail's creator, Dominic LeCoulte, to let her be his apprentice, but is swiftly declined. As Winry convinces Paninya to stop being a pickpocket and return the pocket watch, she peeks in it and finds the date the Elric brothers burned down their house carved inside. Meanwhile, one of the residents is having a baby, and since they are unable to travel to a hospital in the poor weather, Winry decides to deliver the baby. Following a successful birth, Winry asks again to be an apprentice, and Dominic directs her to another mechanic where she can study to become a better automail engineer. With that, Edward and Alphonse continue onwards to Dublith. (Source: Wikipedia)
