(P. 34) the children are afraid of the night and the shadows. Their Imaglnatlve mlnas not only create a Tear Tor tnemselves, out Tor all 0T tnem even hough the bigguns wont admit it, or imagine that the fear is of themselves.Their next move is making a signal arouse, which goes chaotic they all become excessively excited and end up burning overcome part of the forest along with burning the boy with the birthmark to death.

This creates more tension between Ralph and Jack. fou said youd keep the fire going and you let it out
