'The fire – rescue'
'Who'll join my tribe?'
'I will.'
'me.'
'I will.'
'I 'll blow the conch,'said Ralph breathlessly,'and call an assembly.'

PR:
What happened to Ralph is a tragedy, not because himself, but because of the dark side of the boys.When hope comes from the edge of despair, from the last moment that people want to give everything up, I have no idea that how do they recognize the the difference between hope and despair.
