How do the positions of authority and leadership in Ralph and Jack begin to change in Chapter 6: “Beast from Air”? In other words, who do most of the older boys seem to be listening to now, and why? The book is lord of the flies

Jack's innate savagery has taken control of him. His lust for killing and blood has made him irrational. He has become aggressive and rebellious. In chapter eight, he finally decides to leave the group and go out on his own.
