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...
