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...
