Question

In "By the Waters of Babylon," what is the son doing that is forbidden?
A. hunting
B. climbing a high cliff
C. helping to heal a wound
D. traveling to the Place of the Gods

Answer 1

I think the correct answer is D. Even though the law forbids him from doing it, he still "travels to the Place of the Gods". He passes many Dead Places, and thinks about whether he should actually go to the Place of the Gods because it is forbidden, but he does in the end.
