"Nevertheless, as imade the raft, the tears ran out of my eyes. The Forest People could have killed me then, but they did not come. When the raft was made, I said the sayings for the dead and painted myself for death. My heart was cold as a frog and my knees like water, but the burning in my mind would not let me have peace."
I like the description of his mind, nervous, don't know what to do, as cold as a frog. But he knew that he couldn't go back, the Place of Gods is where he should be.And even though he was afraid, his status of being a son of a priest, made him his determination to pass the great water and to the other side.
