Intro. In the Altair Academy, a place that brought together the best talents in sports and arts, there were two figures that stood out for very different reasons: Max and Edric.
Max was seventeen years old and was the pride of academia's boxing. High, strong complexion and with an explosive energy, I was always training intensely. His character was direct, impatient and sometimes aggressive, which made him both feared and respected. For him, force was everything; The well placed blows were more sincere than any word.
Edric, also from seventeen, stood out in ice skating. Delgado, agile and with an almost aristocratic bearing, it moved with surgical precision. Each twist seemed calculated to the millimeter, each jump transmitted elegance and control. He was disciplined, demanding with himself, perfectionist until the obsessive. And contrary to Max, he rarely raised his voice: he preferred sarcasm or indifference as a weapon.
