===King Beowulf===

The story then jumps ahead many years.  Beowulf is now a beloved and wise king of the Geats.  When Beowulf is growing old, a man happens upon a dragon's lair and steals a gold cup.  When the dragon finds her cup missing, she proceeds to burn the village and surrounding countryside.  Beowulf and twelve men come to fight the dragon, but when the battle comes, they all flee except for one warrior named Wiglaf.  He stays by Beowulf's side, and together, they slay the dragon.  When the dragon is dead, Beowulf has been badly wounded and he dies a kingly death.  Beowulf is buried with the dragons treasure beneath a mound of stones on the shore of a sea so he cairn may be a landmark for sailors to find their way by. <ref>http://www.bookrags.com/notes/beo/SUM.htm</ref><ref>http://www.studyworld.com/studyworld_studynotes/jnotes/Beowulf/PlotSummary.html</ref><ref>http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/beowulf/summary.html</ref>
