□ youth versus maturity
□ the struggle between good and evil
□ the forces of nature versus the will of humans
□ a sense of fear versus a desire to grow

Explanation:

1. "the forces of nature versus the will of humans": The setting (post - apocalyptic, natural hazards) challenges the main character's human will against nature.
2. "a sense of fear versus a desire to grow": The setting (forbidden, dangerous places) creates fear, but the character desires to explore and grow.
3. "observance of society’s rules or one’s own ideas": The setting (with tribal rules about the Dead Places) makes the character choose between following rules or his own curiosity.

Answer:

• the forces of nature versus the will of humans
• a sense of fear versus a desire to grow
• observance of society’s rules or one’s own ideas
