Blog 10 the dragon view

In the book Grendal, the dragon is the type of character that exhibits a lot of characteristics. One of his major characteristics are him having wisdom like an old man. He shared his wisdom about life and what he had experienced to Grendal. The dragon changed Grendal point of view on life completely. The dragon says that the world was made up by gods whereas the dragon says that human kind is the downfall to life. While the dragon tells him that, he also belittles Grendal thought and says its foolish of him to think that way. While the dragon lives alone by himself he still understands people through language. While Grendal thinks the same but just do not get it as well as the dragon. Like Grendal is like the opposite of the dragon, he wants to be accepted by the people but they will not accept him because of what he has become. Grendal downfall is he has no one to express himself to or like to talk to. He has no one to tell him why things are the way they are and how come they cannot change. So The only one he can actually talk to is the dragon because he knowledgeable about things that happen in this world because he has lived on this world longer, so that is why he can go to the dragon and actually listen. The dragon has so much wisdom so that is why grendal needs him for things like that. That is like me listening to my parent because they been through some of the stuff I am going through. So grendal listens attentively, so he can change for the better. Wisdom separates the two characters from each other. So these are the reasons I believe separate the characters.
