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...
