Answer:
Because Grendel's mother was not human, she was greatly feared by the Geats. When she was eventually killed by Beowulf, an Anglo-Saxon, the Danes' (Götaland's) fear of Grendel's mother became less as it was exposed that she too could succumb to the cold hands of death. She was not immortal, afterall, as they had previously feared.
Explanation:
Beowulf was an English epic poem which chronicled the military exploits of an Anglo-Saxon named Beowulf. Through sheer doggedness, Beowulf mustered the unflinching courage to kill some monsters: Grendel, Grendel's mother, and the dragon named Wiglaf, who were making life unbearable for the Geats. Following his invitation to fight Grendel by the king of Götaland, Hrothgar, Beowulf showed the stuff that the Anglo-Saxon was made of. As it was known, the Anglo-Saxons preferred to die rather than live in subjugation. They fight for renown and to win laurels, instead of living in cowardice.

Answer:
At first glance, it may seem that ‘Tokyo Blues‘ is about a typical story in which a teenager is in a love triangle. And to some extent, it's true. But the history of Murakami manages to turn events around and highlight the importance of how they happen. It is a short novel, but not light. I have to admit that at the beginning I had my doubts but I really enjoyed reading.

Although the premise can be seen, the story is told with tact, sensitivity and rawness at some times. All these elements make it a very special book. The story stars unusual characters. Everyone has some emotional tare and some ghosts of the past. They are caught between nostalgia and monotony.
Death, sex, disease and insecurity are key elements in ‘Tokyo Blues’. They are present in virtually the entire book and continually condition the story. So are music and literature because despite the fact that Murakami is a Japanese writer, he is fascinated by certain Western elements that (from what I have read) he introduces into almost all his works. In this case, jazz or The Beatles (who title the book with "Norwegian Wood"), Truman Capote, Fitzgerald or Raymond Chandler.
