&¨¨¨¨¨¨¨&¨ ¨&¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨&¨¨¨¨¨¨¨& 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... ¨&&¨¨¨&&&¨
