The knowledge that in the end he would have to kill Voldemort or Voldemort would kill him had been bad enough, but when he grasped that the only way to destroy Voldemort was through his own death, Harry felt sick and cold all over. He had been led like a lamb to the slaughter; worse, because he could comprehend his own fate. Death was inevitable. He could run and die a coward, or face his enemy and hope to save at least some of those he loved. Harry took a deep breath and went out to do what he must.
