Piggy explains Simon's death by suggesting that it was an accident caused by the boys' fear and frenzy during the ritual dance. He insists that they were caught up in a moment of savagery and did not recognize Simon as a human, but rather as the beast they feared. Piggy's rationale reflects his desire to distance the group's actions from any accountability, emphasizing the chaos of the situation and the mob mentality that overtook them. He says this to justify their behavior and to lessen the guilt they should feel for their role in Simon's tragic fate.
