This is a dark and tragic tale about three inseparable friends U KWAI,U TYMPEW, KA SHUN
who never wanted to hurt each other. But unfortunately poverty led the three friends to kill
themselves tragically just to preserve their dignity and Honour. This Incident had taught the
Khasi race to find better means of entertaining friends, relatives or visitors whenever they
come for a visit.
Then came the idea of introducing Betle nut, Betle Leave and Slake Lime as an offering to
visitors in order preserve the honour despite of being poor.
