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...
