&¨&¨&¨&¨&¨ 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... &¨&&¨&¨&¨&
&¨&¨&¨&¨&¨ &¨¨&¨&¨&¨¨
