Kalpa Imperial - the imperial octopus. The empire that is constantly reborn grows and falls apart in bloody civil wars. Its history is continually retold by the rulers, the storytellers, and the common people. It transforms like the fate of some of its citizens, who are sometimes the oppressed and then again rebels or liberators. A meditation on the nature of history and storytellers. A reflection of our own world, where nothing is as it seems and the truth always lies in the eye of the beholder.
