    Adventures in the East

    Once Father Cornelius was exposed as a fraud by Edward Elric. Lust arrived with Gluttony to kill Cornello and put Envy in his place to start the civil war they needed for Father's plan. Lust followed Edward Elric back to East City as word came of a man targeting State Alchemist. Despite frustration of interfering with the Liore plot, they couldn't allow him to die.

    Edward was attacked by Scar but survived the encounter. Lust followed him as he returned to his home for automail repairs. Along the way, Ed inadvertently led her to Doctor Marcoh, who had run away from the Central City labs. After threatening to kill a little girl who had walked in, Lust had convinced Marcoh to tell her where he had hidden his notes on making the Philosopher Stone. She returned to Central City to destroy all the books in Central Library to prevent Ed from finding it upon his return.

    While in Central. Lust and Gluttony confronted Scar and tried to kill him in a fight in the sewers. She did manage to seriously wound him, but his body was never found after he escaped in the running water. Somehow, Edward learned about the secrets of the Central Lab 5, and Lust and Envy found him inside. They killed the Slicer Brothers, then beat up Edward. The lab was demolished to destroy the evidence, and Edward was left outside.

    Lust was going to kill Maes Hughes after he learned the truth behind their plot, but he showed impressive skill in evading her. He was ultimately murdered by Envy.

After Mustang blew up the room with Lust in it, she managed to pierce Havoc's spine as she was regenerating.
