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...
