-Ralph is finally allowed to bleed all the anxieties out of his system.
-He has tried so hard to survive and be a good leader but he has been putting his child like things behind him

Finally understanding what he had, “Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of mans heart, and the fall through the air of the true wise friend called piggy” Piggy was a friend that he couldn’t forget…
