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...
