Yes. Lan Fan and May were ready to kill each other, but after they heard the full Ishval story from Dr. Knox, he told them he hated seeing kids trying to kill each other. That calmed them down for the night, and May chose to leave the next morning to prevent any further fighting.

In the manga, Dr. Knox also contributed to the retelling of the war. So Riza told her version to Ed, Marcoh to Scar and Knox in a way to Al. It is revealed that Knox drove his family away because he had extreme PTSD from the war to the point he almost killed his wife in his sleep.
The town in question is the small town they found Marcoh, where he had integrated himself in the community thus it being personal to him. The previous episode, Envy taunted Marcoh by hanging that town over his head for his cooperation so it’s the one he has in mind once Kimblee recaptures Marcoh.
