Why this must be read:
Near the end of the memorable episode "Operation: Annihilate", Spock is left blind. Kirk has lost his only brother. Though we see at the end of the episode that all has returned mostly to normal, Greywolf the Wanderer explores what else might have happened during that episode. This story considers how Spock would react to losing his sight, and is a surprisingly emotional portrayal that nevertheless rings true. A classic of the hurt/comfort genre, Spock realizes that when all might seem lost, sometimes things can be found in darkness as well.

Boy, if this isn't an oldie but goodie! Greywolf is one net writer's work I go back and reread from time to time and this is one of hir best. Spock in the first person pov is rarely done so well.
