Even though they did not take place in the story, which of these situations would fit the story of beowulf thematically? a. the king double-crosses beowulf by telling grendel of the plan. b. hrothgar asks beowulf to join him in a raid on a rival kingdom. c. beowulf is bitten by a deadly snake and dies. d. beowulf searches for grendel, only to discover that he himself is grendel.

Thematically, the situation that would fit the story of Beowulf is B. Hrothgar asks Beowulf to join him in a raid on a rival kingdom.

The reason is that, in both parts the poem, Beowulf is presented as a hero led by altruism and ancient germanic laws of loyalty to the people and the ruler of the land. If the king asked him to raid a rival kingdom, Beowulf would see no reason to disobey him.

Futhermore, option A is unthinkable: the king shows no sign throughout the poem of wanting Grendel to devour his people. Option C is impossible: Beowulf dies in the second part of the poem after fighting the dragon. Option D is also impossible: Beowulf presents Grendel's head before the king after slaying Grendel's mother.
