Technically this is the only in universe mention of Beowulf. The premise of the bonus quest is both contradictory with the base game and itself while never actually using the name outside the title and description.

Beowulf was a legendary Geatish hero, later written about in a poem of the same name.

Legacy[edit | edit source]

By the mid 9th century, the legend of Beowulf was widespread, even known by English monks. When Brissy the Elder wrote the Rigsogur he believed it would elevate Rig Reidarasson to the likes of Beowulf or Ragnar Lothbrok within the Anglo-Saxon cultural consciousness.[1]
