Naftakin, The Blind           
                                   
                                          
 A Student  At The Charcoal Guild...  His 
 Eyes  Sewn Shut From  Birth... The  Most 
            Successful Student            
                                          
 But One Day He Fell Down Into A  Crystal 
 Cavern.  It Was  Deep In The Mountain, A 
 Great  Hall  With  Only  A  Single  Tiny 
 Inlet   For  Both   Light  And   Falling 
                Students...               
                                          
 In  The Fall, The Quartz  Sliced Off The 
 Threads In  His  Eyes,  Opening Them For 
 The   First   Time.   Before   Him,  The 
 Crystals Mirrored And Refracted The  One 
 Light  Smidge Into A  Whole  Night  Sky, 
 And   He  Was   Struck  Down  With   Awe 
                                          
 But Also With  Shame,  Because  His Eyes 
 Had  Seen.  Hurriedly,  He  Used  Thread 
 From   His   Robe   To  Sew   Them  Back 
 Together, And When Help Came  He Did Not 
        Tell Of His Transgression.        
                                          
 For  Years He  Studied At The  Guild. He 
 Became A Master,  And  Then  A  Pilgrim. 
 Yet The Image  From The Cave  Never Left 
                   Him.                   
                                          
 At  The End  Of  His Life,  When At  The 
 Edge Of  The  World  He Opened  His Eyes 
 For A Second Time, Stars  Had Hatched In 
                 Them...
