Dawaki a community of four families. The four families intermarry between themselves, and it was like a community of one family. They shared almost everything in common. During the farming season, they farm in group. The whole village will go to one family's farm today and tomorrow goes to the other family's farm and it was like that through out the farming season till harvest. It was a hive community of farmers. Everyone doing his thing for the collective good of all. The four family have a habit of sharing food in the evening among themselves which was a beautiful thing.

A once community of hive-minded people became a community full with discord and hatred. It all started when the daughter of the Chief who had married to a man in another community came back with new a religion. She called it the religion of peace and light. As a crusader of the new religion, she spoke to her father at every opportunity she get about the new religion. Her father seem to love the idea of the new religion. And he embrace the new religion fully when he was delivered of the genie that has been tormenting his life for 45 years after his daughter said a prayer from the holy book she was always reading. As usual, a food was brought to the kings house in the evening filled with meat. Before her father could eat the meat she read a verse to him in the holy book which admonished the believer not to eat a meat that was slaughtered by the unbelievers. And the food was thrown to the dustbin. It was not long that the other families knew what was going on in the Chief house. And gradually the habit of sharing food in the community stopped. And latter the culture of going to one another's farm also stopped. The harmony they once used to share disappeared. It get to a level when they never agree on an issues at the village meeting.
They began to keep malice among themselves. The Chief priest, who is the custodian of the culture was not happy at how the chief's family had brought discord to the community and held a secret grudges against the king. He had been finding a way to maliciously indict the Chief, if possible, dethrone him. An opportunity came up when a dead body was found lying in the King's farm. The Chief priest secretly reported to the police that the king had killed a man in his farm and is planning to hide the information from the authorities. The Chief was arrested.

A once strong community both mentally, physically and morally was now frailty. The community became weak in all areas. The Chief priest bought over the weak people morally to bear false witness to seeing the king killing the man in his farm. And the community was completely weak in all areas. Physically, their security defence was weak as there were discord among the themselves. A once hive community that was strong physically and morally was attacked by a dmall foreign community and took their wives, children and the weak into captive because of the discord and malice that destroyed the once strong hive community.
