<span>The literary techique used here is a kenning.

A kenning is a miniature riddle that usually had two parts and was frequently hyphenated. An example of a kenning from Beowulf was "dread-loom." The Anglo-Saxons used this term to refer to God's plan, making a comparison beween weaving and the awe inspired by God's plan.

"Wolf-of-the-waves" is used here to describe Grendel's mother, a beast who lived underwater.</span>

Idk the answer to this at all :(

The answer would be B. She is a female Hercules; she has superior strength.

An allusion is essentially when an author makes some kind of reference to something that isn't really "part" of the text. By this I mean that the author is referencing to something historical or literature. Like in this sentence the author references Hercules. Hercules is from mythology. A easier way to think about this is linking it to real life. A lot of times teenagers "quote" or reference their favorite songs/TV shows/ movies/books in daily conversation. In this situation the teenager is making an allusion.

Hope this made sense!
