Third person objective uses no thoughts and only describes what happens objectively.
Symbols
A symbol is something that represents something else. Symbols can take many forms including objects, pictures, words, sounds, numbers, and language.

Symbols in writing can represent themes, conflicts, or transitions between states like goodness and evil. Common literary examples of symbolism include Ralph's conch shell representing order in Lord of the Flies and snakes representing evil in the Harry Potter series.
