Hello. You forgot to present the excerpt to which this question refers. The excerpt is:
Surely, that was enough to do, and live. Surely it was enough to spend the night upon the cliff. The Forest People themselves do not come near. Yet, all through the night, I knew that I should have to cross the river and walk in the places of the gods, although the gods ate me up. My magic did not help me at all and yet there was a fire in my bowels, a fire in my mind. When the sun rose, I thought, "My journey has been clean. Now I will go home from my journey." But, even as I thought so, I knew I could not. If I went to the Place of the Gods, I would surely die, but, if I did not go, I could never be at peace with my spirit again. It is better to lose one's life than one's spirit, if one is a priest and the son of a priest.
Answer:
O "If I went to the Place of the Gods, I would surely die, but, if I did not go, I could never be at peace with my spirit again."
Explanation:
We can see that the narrator has been given a dangerous mission to go to the place where the gods live. He needs to do this to end the spiritual journey he has undergone. However, the place where the gods live is a place forbidden to humans, but the power and energy that emanates from that place is extremely invigorating and satisfying, which makes the narrator recognize that even if it is dangerous, he would never forgive himself if he lost this experience.
