the village outskirts

............
In past villages, when a new village was established or when people migrated from one place to another, they would set boundaries for the habitat through certain rituals.
The area where the lands of the people in villages began (usually at the outskirts of the village) was called "polimerlu.
These were the places where danger lurked, and there were rules governing visits to those areas, as negative energy often prevailed there.

It was between 1 and 1:30 when he left for the fields, which are at the back of the village. No villages exist along that path, and it was "Padyami" that day (Pratipada).
