On the day the story begins, Bilbo is enjoying a pipe outside his front door when an old man with a long cloak and a staff arrives.]]> 2021-04-01 19:53:06 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376638564 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376639248 Soon, dwarves begin to arrive, and as Bilbo’s neat little home becomes crowded with dwarves, Bilbo becomes increasingly confused and annoyed. At last, Gandalf arrives with the head dwarf, Thorin. The thirteen dwarves and the wizard nearly clean out Bilbo’s pantry before finally settling down to discuss their business.]]> 2021-04-01 19:53:23 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376639248 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376639834 Gandalf wants Bilbo to help on the adventure - to be the burglar! No one else thinks this is a good idea, even Bilbo.

Thror became King under the Mountain, but his treasure attracted unwanted attention. The dragon Smaug came and killed all of Thror’s people.

He is just sitting down to a quiet breakfast when Gandalf enters and rushes him off to an inn where Thorin and the rest of the dwarves have been waiting to begin their journey.]]> 2021-04-01 19:54:34 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376642221 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376644684 Suddenly they see what looks like the light of a fire in the distance.

Trolls will eat just about anything, but they are also short-tempered and dull-witted.

The swords taken from the trolls, he tells them, are renowned goblin-killers from the great wars between the elves and the goblins. Gandalf’s sword is called Glamdring, and Thorin’s is named Orcrist. ]]> 2021-04-01 19:59:23 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376654111 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376654870 On Thorin’s map, Elrond is able to read moon-letters—writing visible only in the light of the moon in the proper phase—that describe how to find the secret entrance on the Lonely Mountain. Though they are puzzled by the message, the group is in high spirits when they depart from Rivendell.

The goblins follow quickly after them, and one of the goblins catches up to the dwarf Dori, who has been carrying Bilbo on his back. Bilbo falls off, strikes his head on the ground, and loses consciousness.]]> 2021-04-01 20:10:45 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376681566 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376681853 "They knew the sword at once. It had killed hundreds of goblins in its time, when the fair elves of Gondolin hunted them in the hills or did battle before their walls. They had called it Orcrist, Goblin-cleaver, but the goblins called it simply Biter. They hated it and hated worse any one that carried it."]]> 2021-04-01 20:10:53 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376681853 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376687083 2021-04-01 20:13:08 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376687083 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376688477 When Bilbo regains consciousness, he can see nothing in the darkness. Feeling around on the floor, he happens to come across a ring, which he puts in his pocket. He has no idea where the rest of the company is, or in which direction the exit lies. Picking the path he feels he had been traveling with the dwarves, he soon comes across an underground lake.]]> 2021-04-01 20:13:43 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376688477 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376689157 There, he discovers a strange creature named Gollum. When Gollum sees Bilbo prowling around, obviously lost, he is interested and a bit hungry, so he approaches the hobbit. Bilbo brandishes his sword when he hears Gollum’s hissing voice.]]> 2021-04-01 20:14:01 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376689157 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376690538 Gollum does not wish to contend with the sword, so he proposes a riddle game. If Gollum’s riddle stumps Bilbo, he will eat Bilbo, but if Bilbo’s stumps Gollum, Gollum will show Bilbo the way out of the mountain. Bilbo has no choice but to agree, and they begin asking each other riddles. In the end, Bilbo wins through a bit of trickery. ]]> 2021-04-01 20:14:37 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376690538 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376692378 Referring to the ring he had found, he asks, “What have I got in my pocket?” and Gollum cannot guess the right answer. Gollum, however, does not intend to let his meal get away so easily. He goes to his island in the middle of the lake to get his “precious,” a golden ring that makes its wearer invisible—the very ring that Bilbo had found.]]> 2021-04-01 20:15:26 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376692378 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376693142 Unable to find the ring, Gollum suspects the hobbit of stealing it and runs at him in a rage. Through sheer luck, Bilbo happens to slip on the ring, and Gollum runs right past him. Realizing the ring’s power, Bilbo follows Gollum, who heads toward the exit thinking that Bilbo is ahead of him. When Gollum gets near the exit, he stops because there are goblins crowded around it. Bilbo leaps over him, runs past the goblins unnoticed thanks to the ring, and just barely manages to squeeze through the door into freedom and fresh air.]]> 2021-04-01 20:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1376693142 JShockey77 https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1377015253 it is important because now we know how to enter the mountain...if barely]]> 2021-04-02 00:02:43 UTC https://padlet.com/JShockey77/l5mdksferur524vm/wish/1377015253
