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...
