"A master mead-house, mightier far / than ever was seen by the sons of earth" (I, 17 18); "What murder and massacre, many a year, / feud unfading . . ." (II, 39 40); "A stout wave-walker / he bade make ready" (III, 10 11); and "'We are by kin of the clan of Geats, / and Hygelac's own hearth-fellows we'" (IV, 3 4). Apex :)
I dont believe so many vikings didn't have last names.
He is 80 years old at the time he was fighting the dragon...
Falling action
In the last battle of Beowulf, he fights a dragon that is terrorizing his kingdom. Despite being mortally wounded, Beowulf manages to kill the dragon with the help of Wiglaf, his loyal companion. Beowulf dies from his injuries, but he is mourned as a hero and a great king.
I found the episode where Beowulf fights the dragon to be the most thrilling. The confrontation is intense and the stakes are high, as Beowulf risks his life to protect his community. The battle is filled with action and suspense, making it a standout moment in the story.
Beowulf's final boast is that he will fight the dragon once it comes out into the open. He fights the dragon and kills it, with the help of Wiglaf. However, Beowulf is mortally wounded in the battle and dies.
Falling action
The last of the "weadmundings" referred to in Beowulf is Wiglaf. He is the brave warrior who stands by Beowulf in his final battle against the dragon, despite the other warriors fleeing in fear. Wiglaf helps Beowulf defeat the dragon but is ultimately unable to save him from his fatal wounds.
He was there when the poem was first written and he is still there now. He comes along in about the last third of the poem.

An example of a simile in Beowulf's last battle is when his sword is described as "gleaming like a blood-stained icicle." This comparison illustrates the sharpness and deadly nature of his weapon.
