// Talking about Beowulf
Ms. Breslin: So for destroying the monster Grendel, the queen gave Beowulf a beautiful gold torque.
Student: What's a torque?
Ms. Breslin: Well, it's like a necklace, except there's no chain and it wraps all the way around the neck...
*Students give blank looks*
Ms. Breslin: (sighs) So for destroying the monster Grendel, the queen gave Beowulf some shiny bling.
