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...
