%title Middle Notes (working title)
:writing:fiction:
Idea: The terror of a sudden addition of a new, unknowable sense.
Story of a blind-from-birth character in a solipsist world, only one, makes incense and lives a life of prayer, foraging and fishing. Some animal - marten, maybe? "He sat in the sun and was greatly warmed, and by this he had always surmised that his fur was of a particular quality that the sun was drawn to, for there were parts of his surroundings that rejected and repelled the sun." Spend at least a few thousand words on day to day life and small challenges.
Conflict: a fae character (presence?) gives him sight - the narrator? "I gave him sight"? That makes the opening a series of observances.
Target length: 30-40k words
## Characters
* Lyut(garde)
* A critter analogous to a pine marten
* Endlessly faithful
* Prays to/meditates/becomes one with Ýng god/spirit of physicality/touch/smell
* Apparently only sapient being on the planet, but all we see are their surroundings
* Makes incense, lives off forage and fishing
* Profoundly blind from birth
* Týw
* god/spirit of light and trickster
## Outline
* On Lyut's daily routine
* On going to bed hungry and subsisting on the smoke of prayer
* On cycles, days, sun, heat
* Confounding with sight
