I wondered who Beowulf's father was and what Hrothgar did for him.
How does Beowulf's father know Hrothgar?
The father of Beowulf was involved in a blood-feud with the tribe called the Wulfings because he killed a man.King Hrothgar of the Danes "healed the feud by paying" and made compensation to the Wulfings on Ecgtheow's behalf.
After the defeat of the monster Grendel, King Hrothgar welcomed Beowulf into the Herot Hall and gave him a speech to celebrate his victory.King Hrothgar can't keep his happiness because of this.
When Beowulf arrives in the Spear-Danes, he is ready to fight the demon.Hrothgar paid money to the Wulfings to end their blood feud with the father of Beowulf.
Wiglaf gathers treasure from the dragon's lair and puts it in a place where Beowulf can see it.The dying Beowulf tells Wiglaf that he is going to become the next king.
Edgetho, Higlac's nephew and follower/bound warrior, is the son of Beowulf.After becoming king of the Geats, he traveled toDenmark to destroy the Herot of Grendel and later joined Higlac on an expedition against the Franks and Frisians.
One Hrothgar's favorite thanes, and a close associate of his, is killed by a mother who sneaks into Herot.Hrothgar wants Beowulf to avenge the man's death.
The answer is Grendel's mother.The mother swore vengeance after her son died in battle, but Beowulf killed her too.
Beowulf dies in battle.Beowulf has ruled over the Geats for fifty years, and he is a good leader.Although they kill the dragon, Beowulf is fatally wounded.
Herot was attacked by his mother because she wanted revenge for the death of her son.She takes his arm that is hanging when she leaves.Hrothgar wants Beowulf to kill Grendel's Mother if he dares.
The reason for attacking Herot is that he hears the songs of King Hrothgar's bard and the sounds of the people in the hall having a good time.
In the film, Hrothgar is the father of a child.Hrothgar commits suicide after appointing Beowulf king.During the final assault on the castle, Hrothgar was killed.Hrothgar is portrayed by Ben Cross.
As a result of losing his arm, Grendel dies alone in his cave.After killing Grendel, Beowulf severs his head to keep as a trophy.He's kind of twisted.
Yes.There is a gift that can protect beowulf from grendel.The helmet and sword were used to defeat the Eight Horses.
Heorot is where Beowulf goes because he heard about how Hrothgar's men have been killed by Grendel.He goes to Heorot because he wants to see how strong the Geats are.
