Who is the real hero of "The Lagoon" by Joseph Conrad? Why?

Answer: Arsat's brother

Explanation:

I think that a good case could be made for Arsat's brother as being the hero for the short story. Arsat's characterization is complex enough that he can be seen as both hero and antihero. He certainly does not see himself as a hero by the end of the story, rather being filled with an immense longing and sense of guilt
