A long time ago, I read somewhere that humans are inherently evil and the only thing that keeps us from wreaking havoc is the fact that we have laws to keep us in check. The theory is that if there wasn’t any consequences, people would do questionable things.
In The Lord of the Flies, these kids end up in a deserted island and without law and order things quickly go south.
I think this story is kinda like that, I think.
