What is the literal meaning of the following quote?

"The land thou knowst not, / place of fear, where thou findest out / that sin-flecked being. Seek if thou dare!"

options:
Go into new territories and do not fear those around you.
Go out and let Grendel know that she will die tonight.
Go into those unknown lands and find Grendel's mother, if you are brave enough. Go find that green-eyed monster and show him we are not afraid.

Answer:

The answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

The literal meaning of the following quote "The land thou knowst not, / place of fear, where thou findest out / that sin-flecked being. Seek if thou dare!" is (c) which says go into those unknown lands and find Grendel's mother, if you are brave enough. "The land thou knowst not, / place of fear, this means land that nobody has ever been to. Where thou findest out / that sin-flecked being refers to Grendel's mother and Seek if thou dare refers to if you are brave enough to face the danger of going into the land.
