,,,&,&&,,, ,,,&,,,,&,
,,,,,&&&,, 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 ,,,&,,&,,&

,&,&&,,,&, 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... &,,,&,&&,,
