So, basically, this is something I had to write for English class. It's a modernization of the first part of the tale Beowulf, an Old English epic from 700BCE. For those not familiar with this tale, the basic idea: Grendel is a demon who rises up and slaughters a mead-hall full of warriors, for the simple sake of them being too loud, as he has sensitive ears. Beowulf is a "hero" who "willingly" goes to Denmark to kill Grendel, constantly bragging about his deeds and how he can slay this monster. Spoiler alert, he does. In the original tale, at least.
Anyways, this is my modern twist on the first Old English bit of literature. Enjoy!
