In one way, this is a very easy and obvious question. But
in another, it is definitely not.
The easy and obvious
answer is that Rainsford kills Zaroff. He manages to make his way into Zaroff's room.
They fight and he manages to kill the general. He then sleeps in Zaroff's
bed.
But it's not necessarily that simple. Some scholars
wonder what Rainsford does next. When Rainsford first heard what Zaroff did on the
island he was totally horrified. But now he kills Zaroff and he really likes Zaroff's
bed. Does this imply that he has changed his mind? Is he going to take over and start
hunting people on this island? That is much harder to answer and it is something you
have to decide for yourself. Do you think Rainsford has it in him to be as evil as
Zaroff?
