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...
