Explanation:

In the poem Beowulf, Grendel is a cruel and savage creature of enormous stature, brute force and cunning that attacks the party hall (Heorot) of the Danish king Hrothgar at night. In its attacks, Grendel kills and eats the warriors who try to defend the hall, which takes the Danes to leave the building. Much time passes until the warrior Beowulf arrives from court, coming from Gotland (now Sweden). Seeing that Grendel does not use weapons, having only the strength to defend himself; Beowulf finds it dishonorable to attack the monster with weapons. Then he uses his overwhelming strength to subdue the monster, which ends up losing an arm.

multiple settings

< > reasoning \ evidence < >

novels have multiple settings. a setting is a place or surrounding when a main event or event takes place. not everything happens in just one scene or setting. yes, there can be one *main* setting, but there is definitely not just one. b is incorrect. novels do not have limited characters. there are many characters in a novel, depending on how many the writer wishes to add in. c is incorrect. there is not just a single theme. there are many themes. another word for "theme" is the subject. there can be many subjects and topics. once again, there are many, depending on however many the author wishes to add or include. d is incorrect. yes, novels *can* have no solutions, based on what the author would like. but typically, novels have a solution. the solution might be in "book 5", but there is normally still a solution.
