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...
