I would like to start off that Piggy is dead and I am just angered with the power of one that might destroy a whole race of people. Piggy should not be dead. Jack should be dead because I think everyone agrees that he is the most sickening character in the whole story. If it wasn't for him going all bamboozled Piggy would be alive. If you are reading this Jack I want to tell you that in Saudi Arabia they cut off your hands for stealing. I will fly you all the way over to Saudi Arabia just to smuggle apples into your pockets. You are a murderer of the true higher power. It may not of been you that rolled the rock that hit Piggy but you are the reason it happened. Because of this event we see the true work of a savage that does not hold back when it comes to his territory and rule.
Now that I have released all of that inner tension in the form of digital text I will explain another major event of this chapter. For one this the conch breaks. For me this was just the apex of anarchy for the boys on the island. Without that shell there is no sign for higher rule. Nobody has power and it is every man for themselves with alliances between the some of the boys. It's as if the whole story was leading up to this moment as the savages grow more and more in insanity until it finally cracks and all leadership is worthless.
We also see that Ralph and Jack get into an epic controversy over Piggy's glasses and the conches power. This then leads to an epic brawl between the two chiefs. Not once, but twice in a row. This moment beyond no others show the greatness of opposition between the two of them. It was sanity versus insanity. I was also wondering what this may of looked like. How dirty were they and how long was their hair? I sort of imagined it as a heavy metal mosh pit. The long hair, and the dirt, and the shoulder shoving. I mean it makes perfect since to me to see that connection.
