Beowulf
and the Deadly Dragon
[2]During the
fifth century, Beowulf was the King of the Geats. He ruled astutely for many years, the people were delighted
under his rule. However, there was a certain dreadful deadly dragon, who had built his house in the side of a
cave near the kingdom. [5]When a defiant
slave sought a place to hide from his master, he went into the cave where he
encountered the dragon, he took a golden goblet and left the cave.
Unfortunately, since the dragon felt that the presence of the goblet had
left him, so he went about burning all the villages with his fire.[1] Beowulf
knew that something had to be done about this.
Beowulf finally made up his mind that he would
kill the dragon. He gathered his soldiers and marched to the side of the cave. [2]Upon
the start of the fight, all but one especially faithful soldier left. As
the fight went on, Beowulf bravely experienced fierce dragon
bites. [2]During this, Beowulf, who was bold, had his silver severing sword broken by the
wicked dragon. [5]Because he was vulnerable, the dragon caught him in his
mouth.
[4]Teaching
the dragon, a lesson was the remaining soldier, who had climbed on its back
and had begun ferociously stabbing its throat, whereupon the dragon
dropped the King. [3]Fortunately, soon after that the dragon gave up and died
and the whole Kingdom was happy, at least for a while, Sadly, the King
died after that due to his serious injuries.[3] Thankfully, the other soldier,
who had helped fight the dragon, evolved into the new King, and the
Kingdom thrived with him. The dragon’s riches became the King’s. Also he
upgraded the whole country and the dilapidated capital city became the
beautiful Stockholm we know today.[4] Learning, the country flourished and
became mighty. While he was their King, the people were seemingly satisfied and satiated.
