You will be greeted kindly as you travel through the Asian deserts. Desert people know that life itself often depends on the kindness of strangers.
If you come upon a camp and ask for protection, you will be given a meal to eat. Be sure to wash your hands in water, if there is any, or if not, in dry sand. Eat well, for there may be many hungry days before you come upon another group of wandering desert dwellers.
