The instruction to compare two things is not a question, not even if you tack a wrongly placed question mark onto the end of the sentence.
Both "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding and "Heart of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad explore themes of human nature, civilization, and the darkness within humanity. While "Lord of the Flies" focuses on the descent into savagery of a group of boys stranded on an island, "Heart of Darkness" delves into the darkness of Imperialism and the human soul. Both novels use symbolism and allegory to convey their underlying messages about the complexities of human behavior.
This yet another example of something which is not a question but is in fact an assignment set by your teacher for you to complete.

Darkness
In "Lord of the Flies," darkness symbolizes the descent into savagery and the loss of civilization and order. It represents the characters' inner darkness and the growing fear and violence on the island. Darkness also conveys the theme of the loss of innocence and the presence of evil within human nature.

The Lord of the Flies itself to Simon
The character who speaks to the Lord of the Flies is Simon. He has a hallucinatory encounter with the severed pig's head, which is referred to as the Lord of the Flies, and it symbolizes the evil and darkness within humanity.
Only once at the end of the book when he releases all of his emotions out because of the "loss of innocence, the darkness of man's heart" and the death of Piggy.
In "The Lord of the Flies," Simon is a character who represents goodness, spirituality, and enlightenment. He has a mystical connection to the island and possesses a deeper understanding of the darkness within the boys. The Lord of the Flies, personifying the evil and savagery within the boys, confronts Simon in a hallucination, revealing the inherent darkness that exists in all of them.
In the context of "Lord of the Flies," the "gift of darkness" can refer to the inherent evil and savagery that exists within all humans, as explored through the boys' descent into barbarism on the deserted island. It symbolizes the primal instincts and darkness that emerge when societal norms and rules are stripped away.
No, but at the very end of the book, quote... Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy.
This phrase likely refers to the symbolism in William Golding's novel "Lord of the Flies," where the character of the "lord of the flies" represents the darkness and evil within humanity. The devil being referred to as the lord over the flies could suggest a similar idea of evil having power over corrupted or base aspects of human nature.
