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...
