Two memorable characters Jaggers and Wemwick are already a big part of Second Stage. I thinkt that they represent very similar personas to Pip. They are both tough and hard working and they both seem wise and slightly intimidating. They are also brought up around mystery; when Pip is waiting for Jaggers and all these people are standing in line and then Jaggers just brushes them off which is wierd and makes him very INTIMIDATING!
This portrays to the motifs of mystery, prison and dark ambience that is found in the first stage of the book. When Pip describes Jagger he goes into great detail about how big/large/wide his features/actions/things are. Similarly, when describing Jaggers office he uses intimidating wording like gloomy, dismal, gray etc. He describes Wemmick with this same essence of ominous.
