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...
