Question

What is the significance of this quote from the book A Long Way Gone?
"Too much blood has been spilled where you are going. Even the good spirits have fled from that place."

Answer 1

I would say that is a strong way of saying that location has a negative background and should be avoided.

Answer 2

This phrase indicates a negative tone. The speaker seems to be trying to make someone avoid this "place" because of past events that might have changed or affected it. And I assume the phrase plays an indirect, but key role in the theme of the story, even though I haven't had the chance to read it.
