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...
