Summary
Who is Max? A figure carved out of speed, precision, and determination. The world champion. A title so definitive in itself that at one time it would elucidate bravery and admiration, but now it is laden with heavy guilt and ruin. The world hails him for the victories, but he feels only losses. They can’t see the hands that shake under the weight of this existence; he so desperately wants to throw away after the crash. There had been a time when a victory brought joy; when the podium felt like home. But that time was a memory—a ghost of a life once lived, replaced by the creeping paralysis of guilt, the suffocating dread that nothing, no achievement, no glory, would ever be enough.

Summary
"Long ago, my heart, my other half, was stolen away. The Sun himself reached out with wretched hands and grasped you between his palms, flying away on his golden chariot. Ripped apart and left in the dust without a heart, I thought I had died without ever having known of living.
But then I felt a rhythmic sound in my hollow chest beating to the tempo of our last dance, and I knew that you were still alive. So, I walked and walked and walked a thousand leagues, following the path of his accursed chariot west. I would’ve walked a thousand more had my heart not stopped its pounding in my chest.
I knew then he’d grown tired of your brilliance."Inspired by the mythological story that people were once born with two heads, and twice the number of limbs. But, in fear of their power, Zeus split them all in two. Now, we seek out our second half, hoping to be united once more.
