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...
