Long Answer
1. Gregor leaps from the cavern at the novel’s climax, believing it will lead to his own death but ultimately save his friends; as he plummets from the crumbling cliff with the rats, he believes himself dead, until he realizes that Ares has rescued him. (Chapter 25) Afterward, Gregor must take a position of leadership in the group since Luxa and his father are incapacitated. (Chapter 26) Gregor’s near-brush with death, during which he overcame his fear of falling to save others, and emergence to a new leader position represents the symbolic death of Gregor’s old, fearful self, and his rebirth as a responsible leader who selflessly protects those who follow him. (Chapter 26)
2. Gregor refuses the sword offered to him by Vikus after reflecting on all the violence and loss of life he’s witnessed over the course of his quest.
