In order to contact Sydney via her dreams, he must go off his medication and access spirit again. Even as she spends months in the dark, resisting torture, Adrian falls off the wagon, spending his days depressed and disoriented. The only scenes that seem to slow the pace down are – predictably – the ones that involve Adrian’s depression following Sydney’s kidnapping. While she attempts to navigate the various pitfalls of “re-education,” Adrian, Jill, Eddie and the rest desperately search for her. Their methods for dealing with rogue Alchemists involve imprisonment, torture and brainwashing designed to make their victims more pliable towards their objectives and methods.
