The Heroes Remembered to This Day

Once upon a time in the ancient days of King Beowulf, who ruled wisely, benevolently, astutely and discerningly over the Kingdom of Gobb, his people loved him. But a massive dragon named Billy lived in a lair near the Sea of Watermelon and the Mountain of Berries. A young lad named Jimmy lived in Beowulf’s kingdom. He was very brave. The kingdom was beautiful and peaceful.

            While the dragon was out of his lair, one of Beowulf’s servants took a goblet and slyly and stealthily slipped away. When he discovered his treasure was missing, the dragon hastily left the lair and roamed the kingdom spiting fire. Beowulf, who was concerned for his people, wanted to protect them. So, he went to the lair with his strongest men. While Beowulf fought the dragon all his men ran away except for they loyal young lad, Jimmy.

            Beowulf brandished his sword but unfortunately his sword broke. The dragon, who continued to fiercely and ferociously fight, bit Beowulf’s neck. Jimmy stabbed the dragon’s neck. Finally, the dragon let Beowulf go. The lad and Beowulf resolutely fought the dragon although Beowulf was fatally wounded. Eventually the dragon died, and Beowulf and the Jimmy went back to their kingdom. Beowulf died as a result of his wound, but he is remembered as a hero to this day.
