Rather, they were of the opinion that Beowulf had been killed by the monsters. This is a theme of suspense for the soldiers who are waiting for their leader. They were sure that their master / leader had been killed. Even Hrothgar had turned his boat and sailed, while the Geats waited expectantly and patiently, hoping for Beowulf to return.
