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...
