“Ah. St. Lucy, if I’m not mistaken.” “St. Lucy?” “You’re not familiar with her? I suppose she’s a little obscure, as saints go. A martyr during Diocletian’s scourge of Christians—around 300 AD. Her eyes were gouged out before she was stabbed to death.” “Poor Lucy.” “Quite. Hence patron saint of the blind. She’s usually depicted like this, carrying her eyes on a platter.”
