Ed grins and waves off Ginko's concern. "I will. Haven't been eaten yet, have I?"
Summer turns to fall, and out in that valley something is stirring. A wind is blowing, not out of season but something about it feels sinister, unsettling. Clouds are gathering above and threatening rain, and he chill seems to bite just a tad bit harder. It's like a warning, a premonition of something to come, and the black wings of crows cawing in the sky only seem to reinforce it.
Not too far from Ed's little shack, in a decently sized clearing the young alchemist can be found, with a stack of notes held down by a rock and a sturdy stick in hand to carefully carve out the runes of the circle he'd been crafting since Ginko had left. He can't afford to wait for so long around here, and he has access to things Ginko hadn't even known existed. For a normal person taking that medicine would be the only option, sure, but Edward is certain he could bypass the process entirely.
It's just a little more complicated than putting a statue back into the ground, is all.
Ed takes one last look around at the circle, checking it against his notes before nodding with satisfaction and tossing the stick away. "This should do." He steps into the circle and kneels, pulling a small knife out of his sleeve and taking it in his teeth to cut a slice across the palm of his hand. Blood drips onto the ground and Ed tosses the knife away before pressing his palm to the center of the circle.
