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...
