Grendel
Beowulf and Grendel fought in the mead hall of Heorot, where Grendel had been terrorizing Hrothgar's warriors. The battle took place at night when Grendel attacked the hall, and Beowulf vowed to rid the hall of the monster.
Grendel's mom takes one of Hrothgar's closest advisors, Aeschere, when she leaves the mead hall. This act drives Beowulf to seek revenge on her.
Beowulf was at Hrothgar's Mead Hall when Grendel's mother attacked. He had stayed behind after defeating Grendel to ensure the safety of the hall.
Grendel has attacked the Mead Hall, specifically Heorot, for years in the epic poem "Beowulf." He terrorizes and kills the warriors in the hall at night, bringing chaos and fear to the kingdom.
In the mead hall, Grendel is unable to touch or ruin the throne of Hrothgar, the king of the Danes.
The battle between Beowulf and Grendel was triggered by Grendel's attacks on Heorot, King Hrothgar's mead hall. Grendel was offended by the noises of joy and celebration coming from the hall and sought to bring terror and destruction to its inhabitants. Beowulf, hearing of the distress of the Danes, offered to help and faced Grendel in combat to stop his reign of terror.
Grendel most likely returns Unferth to the king's mead hall as a way to taunt and intimidate the humans, demonstrating his power and control over them. It serves as a warning to the king and his people to not provoke Grendel further.
Grendel sneaks into the mead hall at night, grabs men while they sleep, and kills them by tearing them apart. He terrorizes the warrior's mead hall, Herot, for twelve years, creating fear and chaos among the men.
The hall in "The Wrath of Grendel" is called Heorot, which is the grand mead hall built by King Hrothgar. It is where the story of Beowulf takes place, specifically in the Scandinavian kingdom of the Danes.
