King Daku reigned over three kingdoms and realms with their gods, this makes him more relevant and powerful.
King daku was identified as a god he was feared and honor, he speaks when is needed, he can be deaf to words and slow to give answers to some burning questions
for every king that rules this kingdom there was an established secret that bind the king to the throne and to the constitution of the kingdom, this was a secret passway within the gods that should limit the activities of the king in participating effectively in some rituals as the case may be, but with the gods, the gods requested a king that love the rituals and respect the sacred, daku hate the spiritual and does not regard the sacred
So he was advised to pretend just because the gods demand a king that is spiritual
So he could pretend to be spiritual as a request from the gods; these offers were never his course as king, but the gods requested a king who respects the spiritual.
