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...
