“The parable of Timruk and other stories” is a storybook and an excerpt from a larger game called Somewhere. It is a collection of folklore believed to have originated in the fictional town of Kayamgadh. The stories in the game were found carved upon temple walls across Bhula Desh, and were first compiled into written form by a travelling poet at the court of Rajha Brimanath at the Kotananku presidency in 1821. This edition was later transcribed into a large folio, accompanied by a set of miniature paintings that were scavenged from the various Persian and Mongolian manuscripts at the library of Kotananku. The historian Prof. James P Fielding translated the folio edition while working at Bhutagunj, the military outpost near Kotananku. His translation, which contains imprints of the temple carvings an excerpts from the original compilation, was published as a companion to his controversial book, “The several histories Kayamgadh”, after his death in 1903. Our game is an enactment of Fielding’s book, a reprinted copy of which is to be found in the archives of the Calcuttab state library.
