A
years later after the King’s death, Beowulf wanted to take revenge. He joined
to Eadgils to back him up. Bewulf avenged Heardred and ended the feuding in
Sweden by killing Onela. He showed his ability to survive in dengerous
situation in many times, until the day came when the fate forced him to battle
the dragon.
Beowulf
took eleven of his men and went wherever to find the dragon. They met up the
man who took the goblet out of the dragon’s lair and Beowulf learned the whole
story of how the dragon’s rage was awoken. The man joined their war party and led
them to the dragon’s lair. Beowulf spoke to his man before leading them in.
Fate had brought him to the place of his death. He said that he had fought many
battles and remember them all. When he was seven, the King Hrethel took
responsibility for him from his father. Hrethel treated him well as well as he
did his own sons, Herebeald, Heathcyn, and Hygelac. Accidentally, Heathcyn
killed Herebeald with an arrow, which was a terrible blow for Hrethel. Hrethel
was unable to avenge his son’s death, because it was caused by his other son.
It was like a man watching his son to be executed.
