Upon Beowulf's arrival, King Hrothgar welcomes Beowulf soon after Wulfgar has escorted him to Herot. Beowulf makes a request to the KIng as an exchange for his bravery-being alone with the help of his men, should purge all evil. This quote describes an Epic Hero, one that is on a quest.

Grendel's Mother
Barehanded and merciless, Beowulf fights and rips off Grendel's arm- who flees and later dies in his lonely cave, Beowulf later hangs Grendel's arm in a rafter in Herot.
Beowulf v. the Dragon
A lonely cave illed with gold, treasure, and swords.
In order to seek revenge, Grendel's mother attacks Herot and retrieves Grendel's arm- which was held as a trophy by Beowulf- and flees to an underwater cave. Beowulf follows her and soon kills her by using a magic sword blessed by giants, which is able to defeat her.
50 years later...Beowulf has to defend his people by killing a fire-breathing dragon. Beowulf along with the help of Wiglaf successfully kills the dragon. Despite this, Beowulf later dies by a wound on his neck caused by the same dragon;"The monster came quickly toward him,Pouring out fire and smoke, hurryingTo its fate." (pg.26)
