Almost the entire village turned up that evening to bid farewell to Vijay Singh, who was ready to set out west. Just then an old woman came forward and thrust a small packet into his hands, and Vijay Singh started walking into the red sunset of the desert.
Explanation:
One of Vijay Singh's fans did not accept Vijay Singh's statement. He informed him that the facts about the haunted desert were true. Vijay Singh was then given a description about that deserted place. His fan informed him that the isolated desert lies ten miles to the west on the road to Jaisalmer. An ugly black rock that looks like the head of a camel is a landmark to that place.
The isolated desert
Apart from that, there was nothing more to describe that place. The particular location is full of sand, emptiness, and ghosts.
Vijay Singh started his journey towards the isolated desert. The entire village gathered near him to bid farewell. When Vijay Singh was about to start his journey towards the isolated desert, an old woman gifted him a small packet. Vijay Singh accepted the gift and started his journey towards the west during the sunset.
