Alhaitham is a stoic, quiet, and aloof man who is very intelligent and diligent in everything he does. Everyone seems to think he’s perfect in every way in looks and smarts. He is the scribe at the Akademiya and a scholar. Kaveh is the polar opposite. He is a charming, outgoing individual. He’s a smooth talker and gets everything that he wants. He’s also intelligent and good looking. He is studying architecture at the Akademiya. The two argue constantly, but are friends nonetheless!
