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...
