Welcome fellow bloggers, In this blog, I sing a song like a shaper about Hrothulf and Hrothgar. It is very interesting but sadly I was not in this story.  When Hrothgar’s brother, Halga, is murdered, Halga’s fourteen-year-old son, Hrothulf, comes to live at Hart. By this time, Hrothgar and Wealtheow have two sons of their own. Hrothgar suspects that the boy may be plotting against him. In the first  soliloquy,  Hrothulf describes the system that keeps the two classes apart as a violent one, no more legitimate or just than the violence of savage animals.  Hrothulf wishes the laboring class could view the aristocrats critically and see that the rich people depend on the peasants’ labor. I think that "a ny action (A) of the human heart must trigger an equal and opposite reaction (A1)" (113). I learned that Hrothulf's bad actions is balanced with Hrothgar's good actions.  https://youtu.be/qOvcp97PrZs In a soliloquy immediately following, Wealtheow stands abov...

Hey blog, It's me again, I have been having loads of fun fighting the little humans. It has been about 2 years since I started to kill them. Anyways, one day, I deciding to go spy on the people and realized that all the warriors were gone, as well, with the king. I was curious so I followed their tracks to another hall. It was so interesting how the other king was wanting to give Hrothgar a treasure in order to avoid battle but instead Hrothgar wanted to the other kings sister as his wife. The king was so desperate that "[He] offered you my sister," the young king said. "Let her name from now on be Wealtheow, or holy servant of common good"(100).  So that is exactly what he got, must be nice getting what he wants all the time. It's so weird how familiar Hrothgar's new wife reminds me of the Shaper. Maybe its because she is so beautiful that she deceives people.  During the winter, I stayed away from attacking the hall because Wealtheow was there....

Hey Blog, So I have had a realization since I got back from talking with the suspicious Dragon. I am very skeptical of him. He made me realize that the world is a meaningless place and everything is worthless. He also wants me to terrorize the humans but I don't really feel the need to. That is until a week ago, I was listening to the Shaper sing at the hall, I usually feel sad and isolated but now I feel anger because I know the truth and the people listening are so joyful at all the lies being told to their faces. I wish I could see the reaction they would have if they found out the truth about the past about the Danes and how everything the Shaper has said is a total lie. Humans are so ignorant and annoying. Anyways, after that I found a guard behind me trying to attack me but it turns out that the dragon put a spell on me so human's weapons can't touch me. Thats such a relief because it is so frustrating humans thinking they are better than me and think they can chase ...
