<p>Idea: The terror of a sudden addition of a new, unknowable sense.</p>

<p>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 - fisher, maybe? &ldquo;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.&rdquo; Spend at least a few thousand words on day to day life and small challenges.</p>

<p>Conflict: a fae character (presence?) gives him sight - the narrator? &ldquo;I gave him sight&rdquo;? That makes the opening a series of observances.</p>
