Symeon Star-Eyes is a legendary knight from the Age of Heroes who was blind.
Legend
According to legend, Symeon was a knight who lost both of his eyes. He replaced them by putting star sapphires in the empty sockets, or so the singers claim. [1] He fought with a long staff with blades at both ends and would spin it in his hands to chop down two men at once. [1] He once visited the Nightfort where he saw hellhounds fighting.[2]
Speculation
It may be possible that Symeon Star-Eyes was a man that became an Other. The "star sapphires in the empty eye sockets" may be referring to the blue glow of an Other's eyes. For if he literally had sapphires for eyes, how did he "see" hellhounds fighting at the Nightfort?
