The death of Grendel

"Is it joy I feel? They watch on, evil, incredibly stupid, enjoying my destruction. 'Poor Grendel's had an accident,' I whisper. 'So may you all'"(173-174).

• The reader feels bad for Grendel's pain even though he wishes it upon others. Being a vicious monster makes him the opposite of what a hero is normally portrayed as.
