The moment when his eyes opened refers to Elliot, the character in the novel "When His Eyes Opened" by Simple Silence. Elliot, who was in a coma and expected to die soon, unexpectedly began to slowly open his eyes one day while lying still in bed. This moment shocked those around him because he was supposed to be dying and in a vegetative state, but he showed signs of awakening with his obsidian black eyes opening under the light of a crystal chandelier. This event was a turning point in the story as it indicated that Elliot might regain consciousness despite the doctors' low expectation of recovery.
