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...
