Lord of the Flies Chapter 1 Setting
During chapter 1 Ralph lowers himself down into a lagoon on a beach. There he encounter another boy who is chubby and wears thick glasses. The chubby boy with thick glasses turns out to be Piggy who say that there plane had been shot down and crash landed in the jungle with no sign of the pilot.
Ralph and Piggy walked around the beach in search of the other people on the plane, while doing so they discovered a conch shell that Piggy thought could be used as a trumpet, they blew through the shell trying to find the other people that was on the plane, they found the rest of them and they order them to stand at attention.
They begin exploring the jungle. They eventually reach the end of the jungle, there they could see steep mountains, and a island that had no sign of civilization. When they get back Ralph sounds the conch shells telling the others that there are no adults on the island. One of the boys brought up that none of them new that they crashed there, so Ralph say that they will light a signal fire on top of the mountain so that ships might see the fire and get help for them because they were trapped there.
The setting in chapter 1 was them getting to know the island and exploring through it.
