Grendel's Lining {Dam Chalk}

A Story by Abishai100

A Devil's Advocate Selfie/capitalism nihilist-messenger engages with a narrating Earth world 'prince' of eco-jellyfish and perhaps controversy.

"
An eco-capitalism portrait/fiction for Earthling superstition, featuring the iconic/prototype Devil's Advocate, from the adventure thoughts epic-poem BeowulfGrendel (and John Gardner characterizations). Thanks for reading (Happy Friday),

Well, I had found fare-rich capitalism arms for my South America project-view for a hydro-power dam for modern energizer-intuitions for profit and harnessing of Earth's lush elements in grand environments and wanted to link any success of my (American) company to some future-view media 'image' of some eco-capitalism jardinieres ambitions, perhaps for clean-coal tech flowering renewables thinking for making commercial enterprise 'richly' eco-political (ha). However, I'd be challenged, by a Devil's Advocate (Facebook-like). Follow along, friends (Selfie-like!).



This challenge post-construction and company production marketing for media Earth came in the form of a nihilist 'dragon-being' named Grendel; but I had no clue Grendel (from Beowulf lore/maps!) was real (actually!). Suddenly, I felt like Job or perhaps Solomon himself, negotiating for the Earth capitalism race vanities of hydro-power use for eco-capitalism 'ad-vanity' for modern commerce rhetoric (for storytellers!).



Grendel opted to come to me in the form of a 'fun' Earth realm sci-fi creature-avatar Xenomorph (in South America!) to initiate this social media culture 'friendly' chat about incomplete-arts of eco-capitalism flowery justifications in a mod-Earth of great profit-pyramids of resource/extraction compromises and leverages (for the soul!). Was this exchange for eco-capitalism symbols to be Facebook-like (for leviathan/uncertainty)?



GRENDEL: You've become a fatso for element/environment arms, prince.
ME: Well, I guess you're marked me for some hydro-dram vanities legalese here!
GRENDEL: Can you not see the reach of capitalism for leverage dire-sraits, fool?
ME: Well, I think (here!) that allusions for fortune/insurance invoke variance.
GRENDEL: You intend to use variance as a method-tactic for eco-ads, eh?
ME: If this hydro-dam proves lucrative, I can 'shift' to an eco-project for fame.
GRENDEL: So, the Earth benefits, in all due irony, from the cholesterol of success?
ME: Why not...for shockwaves (Facebook-like)?
GRENDEL: I depart from your 'eco' company as a mere-witness of Hell, prince.
ME: Farewell (Selfie-like).



I had to wonder what Grendel wanted (with me!). I of course proceeded with my martial-mentalism for my South American 'campaign' to build a clean-coal 'sideshow' to my success-inferenced hydro-dam project for capitalism's arms of bread/fruit and became something of a Selfie culture-celeb for incomplete-arts of fortune-branching for leviathan/uncertainty. Perhaps, I guess, Grendel (merely) wanted to measure the imagery/iconography of what made Earth realm civilization jars of shading (for doubt/goals).
