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...
