The gate icon, Details, relates to what I read. In the chapter, a character named Al, one of the main character's friends, committed suicide. That shows the who and the what in the scene. On page 303, some side characters elaborate saying, " One of the initiates [Al]. What happened?" " Same thing that happens every year, he pitched himself over the ledge." Al jumped off the ledge of the 'chasm', an area next to a waterfall. This explains the 'why' of the scene. Although his reason for doing so is unclear, Tris, the main character, believes that it was her fault. She states on page 315, " But I should have. I should have forgiven him." She feels guilty for not accepting his appology from when he ,along with two other guys, tried to throw her off the chasm. She believes that if she had forgiven him, things would have played out differently.
