Ramayana, The Lesser Heroes - Ashwamedha
Critical to the main story, but rarely spoken of, and never in the same hushed whispers of awed reverence as the protagonists, the series  attempts to highlight the lesser heroes of a magnificent epic, without whom the epic itself would have paled in its essence.

Presenting, a representation of the Ashwamedha yagna and the horse that linked the essential reuniting of the prime characters.
The Epic has international reach and popularity - from the coasts of India to the shores of the Indonesian Islands (not just Hindu Bali). Hence characters have forms that are not necessarily ‘Indian’ in their appearance.
