Explanation:

This is one of the differences between the battle with Grendel and the battle with the fire dragon. In the battle with the fire dragon, Beowulf carries weapons, while in the one with Grendel he does not. These are two of the battles that the hero faces in the epic Beowulf. Although he is victorious in both cases, the battle with the fire dragon leads the hero to his death.
