Lera25 [3.4K]
Grendel wages war, that is terrorizes Heorot and its inhabitants, because he is a carnivorous, devilish creature that is committed to disturbing the king's peace and prosperity of the realm. The Dragon, on the other hand, wages war simply because a slave stole a cup from the treasure he had guarded for ages. So, his motivation is retribution. Grendel is a subverted human, the descendant of Cain, so he challenges the king and his subjects. The Dragon is something less particular, a kind of irrational force that subverts the order itself. He strikes Beowulf's kingdom. The clash of the two of them will end with both being dead, and the conflict unresolved.

GalinKa [24]
Well I can answer what the word beast suggests about the text.
I think it is suggests that they don't know much about the people of Mars, the life forms that lived there so they are frightened of them. They know that they are intelligent, or were, but also acknowledge how the planet is nearly impossible to sustain life with all of its water frozen.
Hope that helped, I don't know much about English class in highschool yet so I wasn't sure exactly how to answer the question.
