Passage Summary (for reference):
> Once there was a warrior whose name was Beowulf. He was rememberable because he had some important values that no one had at that time. The hero was strong, loyal and had a lot of courage. However, in a kingdom everything was not perfect at that time because the kingdom had been attacked significantly by three enemies. Therefore, the warrior fought against a monster, the Grendel’s mother, and a dragon. The loyal and strong man helped the Hrothgar by fighting three times against enemies. Unfortunately, the hero died in his last war.
