This is where Beowulf comes in. the Danes where in the hall where they drank and had a good time. After that they were all a little tipsy and they went to sleep. After that this monster Grendel comes into their hall and kills thirty men with ease. The Danes were terrified so the sailors that sailed to Sweden told what had happen back in Denmark. Beowulf had heard the story and agreed to fight this Grendel. Beowulf took fourteen of his men back to Denmark to fight.

So Beowulf and his men make it back to the Danes to help them out with Grendel. Beowulf and his men wait for Grendel to come back by pretending to be asleep. Grendel comes back but he kills one of his men. Beowulf gets up and get on Grendel. They fight but Beowulf almost looses his life when Grendel gets on top of him but his chained mail stops Grendel’s claws from piercing his skin. With Beowulf mighty strength he gets up and rips Grendel’s arm off. This made Grendel run back to his lair, where later on he dies. Beowulf had defeated Grend
