Detailed explanation-1: -The divine retribution endowed upon the Opportunists involved them eternally chasing a banner that they can never catch, symbolic of the ambition they so lustily chased on earth.
Detailed explanation-2: -The wasps and hornets chasing them represent their guilty conscience. Their actions were of moral filth, so they run through the filth and maggots of hell.
Detailed explanation-3: -They are THE OPPORTUNISTS, those souls who in life were neither for good nor evil but only for themselves. Mixed with them are those outcasts who took no sides in the Rebellion of the Angels. They are neither in Hell nor out of it.
