So purpose of the fire was to send a signal to anyone on a boat or ship to come rescue the boys. However, later on in the story, someone sets the jungle on fire to kill Ralph. So, the fire was originally intended for good but then was used to do evil.
As for the drum roll, I think it represents chaos and future troubles they will encounter because they have "fallen apart as a society." There is a lot of discord among the boys.
Hopefully this helped and good luck.

<em>Through the Looking-Glass </em>is a novel written by Lewis Carroll as the sequel to <em>Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.</em>
In the given scene, the Red Queen reveals to Alice that the entire countryside is laid out in squares, like a huge chessboard, and offers to make Alice a queen if she can move all the way to the eighth rank/row in a chess match.

Explanation:
Please do not use "and/or" in either formal or informal writing. In common English, the "or" is a "non-exclusive or" which means "either A or B, or A and B". When I say "I can have a banana OR I can have coffee" then I am also OK with having both. Having a banana does not prevent me from having coffee.
