The link skill activated per Ed's wishes and the forge's sparks that used to lay on Ed's hands instantly appeared on the bony palms of Trench instead. The skeleton mage was surprised at first but this surprised was rapidly suppressed after Ed commanded Trench to imitate his feat.
Trench didn't know where to even begin, however. To his luck, Ed didn't fail to notice this and called for a new skeleton.
'For now just shrink their figure and reinforce it with their own left over bone material' Ed wouldn't be able to provide materials to Trench at all times so reinforcing the skeletons using what was essentially nothing was not necessarily a bad idea.
