chapter 8**** sorry
The discussion is metaphorical. Simon is addressing his dark side. Simon is Golding's Christ figure. He faces his own daemons. The daemons or in Simon's case Beelzebub (Lord of the Flies), admonishes him for wanting to save the boys from themselves. Both physically and emotionally.
