The sight was strange because it was impossible to harm Grendel, but at the same time the sight was wonderful because Grendel's death meant the people would have peace.

Although you haven't shown the text this question refers to, we can see from the context that it refers to "Beowulf."

"Beowulf" is the epic that tells the story of how the Anglo-Saxon hero, Beowulf, defeated the terrifying monster, Grendel. With the reading of this epic, we can say that:

  • Grendel was a terrible and bloodthirsty monster.
  • He was immune to any kind of weapon and his skin was impossible to cut.
  • This means that no one is able to defeat him or even hurt him.
  • But Beowulf, in addition to being strong and very strategic, managed to cut off Grendel's head.

As Grendel was impossible to harm, the sight of his severed head was very strange, as it seemed impossible to happen, but it was a wonderful thing, as the people would be free from his attacks and they would have peace.

bekas [8.4K]

You should use aka or “also known as" exclusively for people who have other names that are not commonly known. On the other hand, APA addresses format not style. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
