The goats fighting with blind fury embody the dynamic of radical determinism applied to human drama: forces opposing each other while believing they are free to attack, defend, and prevail, whereas the entire framework of their clash is entirely sustained by a pre-written script. Every push and every resistance obey an inexorable causal flow, devoid of a true moral author yet dense with mechanical levers. At the bottom, almost imperceptible compared to the convulsive dynamism of the giants, the rats observe and direct. They do not participate in the fray because they do not suffer from its illusion; they simply maneuver it by exploiting its blind energy. They represent the impersonal instance of conditioning, the subtle threads of causality and calculation that do not need brute force to govern chaos, but only need to let it expand according to the rules of its own nature.
