Olivier Armstrong

At Briggs, the weak don't serve the strong. The weak simply disappear.

📍 The first rule she presents to Edward Elric upon arrival — brutal, but an honest reflection of what life at the Northern Wall demands.

I love my soldiers. Which is exactly why I never allow them to be weak.

📍 The moment that shows her harshness is actually care — demanding strength from her soldiers because she owes them survival.

Whether enemy or ally, nothing in front of me is useless. Shield or obstacle — everything has a purpose.

📍 A glimpse into how she sees every situation — a chess board, every piece a variable she's already accounted for.

The Decision to Remove General Raven

She kills General Raven herself to cut out the rot inside central command. A scene outside the chain of command that makes her pragmatic moral code crystal clear.
