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...
