		[1] That is, although Eanmund was brother's son to Onela, the slaying of the former by Weohstan is not felt as cause of feud, and is rewarded by gift of the slain man's weapons.

		During his time on the throne, Beowulf manages to secure his kingdom from outside threats because of his widely known skill in battle, for he “survive[s]/ every extreme, excelling himself/ in daring and in danger” (lines 2397-9).
		However, once Beowulf is slain by the dragon, his one stoutly loyal knight, Wiglaf, son of Weohstan, predicts that all of Beowulf’s subjects “with freeholds of land, our whole nation,/ will be dispossessed, once princes from beyond/ get tidings of how you turned and fled/ and disgraced yourselves” (lines 2887-90).
		The instability caused in the land of the Geats by Beowulf’s demise makes itself almost immediately evident, for the fastness and security of the region during Beowulf’s time is most perceptible only when it begins to disappear after he meets his doom.
