@.@.@..@.@ @.@@.@.@@.
@.@.@.@@.@ 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... @..@.@..@.

@.@.@.@@.@ @..@.@..@.
@.@.@..@.@ But Also With Shame, Because His Eyes @.@@.@.@@.

@.@.@..@.@ 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 @.@@.@.@@.
