Beowulf+Six+Word+Stories

A few years ago Kevin Hogsden, a friend of mine, invited several of us TC's to participate in one of his projects: writing an original story to post on his wiki site. The only catch was--the story could only be six words long. That's right. Six. Count them 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 words long. He had just read an article in //Wired// magazine that asked several famous authors to write their own six word stories based on a famous Ernest Hemingway saga: "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." We rose to the occasion and eagerly began writing and publishing our own six word stories. Now I'm asking you to rise to the occasion and write and publish your own six word stories based on the story of //Beowulf.// To help you get started, here is my story:

Beowulf came. Fought Grendel. Rescued Danes. cmc
