The rules change on top of the mountain in "Lord of the Flies" because it represents a shift in power dynamics and a symbolic elevation above the chaos of the island. The boys who ascend the mountain enforce their own rules to solidify their control and assert dominance. It also marks a departure from the democratic ideals they initially tried to uphold.
The changing of rules on the top of the mountain in "Lord of the Flies" symbolizes the shift in power dynamics and descent into savagery among the boys on the island. As they move physically higher on the mountain, their behavior reflects a moral decline and growing brutality, where rules become more arbitrary and violence becomes normalized. The mountain becomes a metaphorical space where authority and order are eroded, leading to chaos and conflict.
The boys on the mountain feel a sense of power and detachment from society due to their physical distance from the rest of the group. This leads them to create new rules that prioritize fun and less responsibility, reflecting a shift towards savagery and a disregard for the rules of civilization.
