'They are falling apart into great blocks of stone, and the forest is safer going.' AND 'No man of my tribe had seen it, not even my father, the priest. It was magic and I prayed.'
In the first quote we see that the narrator is cautious because he talks of the god-roads falling apart. He says that "the forest is safer going".
