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...
