And the image I picked also looks like an evil beast so that's why I picked it because it looks like some sort of evil troll sort of creature. What I think will happen next is Grendel's mother will get in a fight and die.

She probably has that same kind of long claws made for killing. I think Beowulf will survive his encounter with Grendel's mother.]]> 2022-09-29 11:59:15 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319240207 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319241902 I chose this image to portray Grendel's mother because she is said to be a horrifying monster. I imagine she would have huge hands with long claws just like her son, so she can snatch people up and kill them. 

I think Beowulf will try to fight Grendel's mother, but neither will die. I think the two will fight multiple times until one of them is finally killed.]]> 2022-09-29 12:00:30 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319241902 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319241987 I chose this image because it describes Grendel's mother as a horrible monster and since Grendel had huge arms and claws I would think his mother also would. It also is standing up which makes the beast seem huge and I would think that Grendel's mom would be the same size or bigger than him. I think that what happens next is that Beowulf goes to find Grendel's mother and ends up getting killed by her and then she will terrorize the town and destroy all of it.]]> 2022-09-29 12:00:34 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319241987 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319243978 I believe that Grendel's mother should probably closely resemble Grendel himself, being his mother and all. She's described as a horrible monster but it doesn't seem enough to defend herself when it comes to the warriors. It could just be fear itself or the lack of strength, or hiding her strength. I think what happens next in the story could be a plot twist, seeing the beginning of the story building up a hero. We might see the fall of a hero.]]> 2022-09-29 12:02:03 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319243978 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319249302 I chose this image because Grendel's mother is described as a "horrible monster in her own right". So if Grendel is considered to be a monster then it is likely that he is like his mother who gets angry and also decides to attack Heorot just like her son had so she could seek vengeance. If anything from the way that Grendel's mother is described I think she might also have those long claws just like Grendel which she probably also used to grab one of her victims that was there that night staying at the mead hall.]]> 2022-09-29 12:05:48 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319249302 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319251764 They describe Grendel's mother as a horrible monster that lives in a lake where the water boils so maybe she is devilish and I think Beowulf's gets overwhelmed and gets defeated with the Monster. ]]> 2022-09-29 12:07:26 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319251764 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319252308 I chose this image because they describes as a woman but but having a man strength. Beowulf will kill her to.]]> 2022-09-29 12:07:52 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319252308 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319255545 This is Lilith the first wife of Atom. In folklore she is the first woman and the mother to all demons. She refused to submit to Adam and left the garden of Eden. Three angels found her with children and they murdered them all 100 of them. As revenge Lilith steals the life of babies and is said to be responsible for still born's.   Grendel's mother makes me think of Lilith as she is the mother of all demons and Grendel is described as a demon , also The first of her children where spawned from an angel known as Samael also known as Lucifer the devil himself.]]> 2022-09-29 12:10:20 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319255545 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319261556 I chose this image because Grendel's Mother  should look like Grendel. She is his mother and is described as a "horrible monster". In the reading she is described as fearing the warriors. She might be hiding her strength for the finale. I think at that the battle will be more intense with Grendel's mother than Grendel's battle with Beowulf. ]]> 2022-09-29 12:14:47 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319261556 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319280346 I chose this image because Grendel's mother is portrayed to be a monster full of anger and sadness due to the death of her son Grendel. 
I think that Beowulf will fight her, but no one will win. ]]> 2022-09-29 12:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319280346 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319352738 I chose this image because Grendel and his mother are both demons and this is what I think demons could look like. I think that Beowulf and a bunch of his men are going to go to track them down back to their land and attempt to kill them. I think that Grendel and his mother will kill most of the other men and Beowulf will have to fight them on his own.]]> 2022-09-29 13:10:20 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319352738 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319393901 I chose this image because I think that Grendel's mother is most likely a larger, older version of Grendel who is incredibly enraged that Grendel was killed. she is described as a "horrible monster" and I think this picture shows that very well.]]> 2022-09-29 13:31:10 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319393901 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319409381 I choose this image because it conveys the possibility of how gigantic Grendel's mom actually is, and the threat she poses against everyone in the mead hall.]]> 2022-09-29 13:38:32 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319409381 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319419300 I chose this image because I imagine Grendel's mother to be even bigger and even more terrifying than Grendel. I think she will confront Beowulf and Heorot and bring more destruction. ]]> 2022-09-29 13:43:34 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319419300 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319422968 I chose this image because the monster shows a lot of anger and emotions just like Grendel's mother. I think that Beowulf will venture out to find Grendel's mother and battle both Grendel and his mother this time. ]]> 2022-09-29 13:45:18 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319422968 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319427767 I think this is what Grendel's mother looks like. Both Grendel and his mother are demons so it only makes sense that they both appear to be scary. Grendel and his mother both share scaly skin that is impenetrable to swords and both of them are very big. I predict that Beowulf will try to kill Grendel's mother but will struggle more because Grendel's mother is fueled by revenge and will fight tirelessly to kill Beowulf. ]]> 2022-09-29 13:47:43 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319427767 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319432042 I chose this picture because i think that this is what Grendel's mother would look like when shes lurking in the swamp. I think that Beowulf will kill the mother but he will also die while fighting her]]> 2022-09-29 13:49:50 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319432042 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319432603 I think Grendel's mom would look like this, especially because they said she keeps her lair in a swampy wood and this best matches the monster above, looks like a monster that would prefer that type of environment. For what happens next, I think Beowulf will prepare to fight his mother, which will be a tough fight but he will still somehow come up victorious. ]]> 2022-09-29 13:50:07 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319432603 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319436594 I would like to imagine that Grendel's mother is most likely to look the same as her son with the exception of the mother being a bit larger. My prediction for the final battle is that Beowulf will be able to kill Grendel's mom but most likely die to wounds after. ]]> 2022-09-29 13:52:11 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319436594 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319443530 I think Grendel mother looks like a larger yet scarier Grendel. I think Beowulf and Grendel mother are going to battle but I would hope to think that they will both survive and come to peace.]]> 2022-09-29 13:55:41 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319443530 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319444036 I think that Grendel's mother would look almost like Big Foot. I imagine both Grendel and his mom to be a monster but still close to an animal. Something that resembles an animal would be most likely to live in a swamp, and maybe this story was based on an animal that they did not know. I think in the final battle, Beowulf will defeat Grendel's mom but he will die in the battle too.]]> 2022-09-29 13:55:56 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319444036 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319446473 The image that I chose is a good representation in my mind because that's how I would imagine the Danes would describe and Draw Grendel's mother. A gross hairy demon who lives in a cave who also has the ability to snatch and kill any of those warriors. I think that the princess is going to rig Beowulf's armor so there's a flaw that Grendel's mother can take advantage of. But also the journey to the swamp is going to take some time and the warriors he takes get scared and don't want to go any further once they reach the swamp.]]> 2022-09-29 13:57:10 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319446473 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319448956 I think Grendel's mother would look somewhat similar to her son but maybe a bit bigger and scarier especially since she is looking for revenge for her kid. I think she's going to keep on killing people until she thinks she got revenge.]]> 2022-09-29 13:58:24 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319448956 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319450577 Since Grendal gets his demonic, horrible features passed down to him from his mother, I belive that his mom will look just as terrifying as he is, if not, worse. In the poem, it is described that Grendal is an unterly horrifying creature, with razor sharp fangs, and a tendency to drink blood like a slushie. Both having similar looks, but Grendals mother being the Alpha.]]> 2022-09-29 13:59:06 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319450577 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319451592 I chose this image because it shows how evil Grendel and his mom are that they are both demons. I think there will be a battle between Beowulf and Grendel's mom and the result is that Beowulf will win the battle but Beowulf will also die like her after fighting her.]]> 2022-09-29 13:59:40 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319451592 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319451847 I think Grendel's mother would look like a bear and big foot put together because it mentioned them being hairy, big, and strong. I think that Grendel's mother and Beowulf are going to battle and that Beowulf is going to die since he said that he wasn't going to make it through this. ]]> 2022-09-29 13:59:49 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2319451847 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2320376023 The description of Grendel's mother is a bit limited but we can assume that she looks somewhat like her son. When visualizing Grendel and his mother, I think of Deathclaws from Fallout. They both have long, sharp claw, fairly large and stand on their own 2 feet. They also look a bit monstrous.]]> 2022-09-30 02:33:00 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2320376023 kozmadj https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2320925482 Grendel's demonic mother may hold a far more vile look compared to her son (as shown here). Which may as well make this Beowulf's biggest, and final threats to face against. The mother of Grendel is so distraught by her son's death, that she causes far more rampage than what her offspring could've done. ]]> 2022-09-30 11:52:06 UTC https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2320925482 https://padlet.com/burkeme1/hljxvq94n3704nju/wish/2320933378 I picked this image because Grendel's mother is described as a horrible monster.
