What is the name of the evil group in Beowulf?

Grendel
Sköll
Gegen
Fafnir

The correct answer is: Grendel

In Beowulf, Grendel is the name of the evil group. Other options such as Sköll, Gegen, and Fafnir are not correct because they either refer to individual characters or are not mentioned in the text. Sköll is a wolf in Norse mythology, Gegen is a rare surname, and Fafnir is a dragon in Norse and Germanic mythology. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the context and details when answering questions about literature.
