May I present to you the Polynesian legend of ‘The Octopus and The
Rat’.. Some legends tell of intrepid heroes and dastardly villains, and their
epic duels across space and time. Some tell of deceitful deities, and their
tricks and schemes to bewitch humankind. Some tingle the spines of wide-eyed
children, and some devour the hearts of brave but stupid men. Some make you
laugh. Some make you weep. Some inspire nostalgia. And some make you glad to be
alive.
But this one doesn’t.
