After the dragon was killed the dwarves, elves, men of dale, orcs, and goblins start fighting over the treasure. The dwarves had recaptured the treasure that the dragon had taken from them and they refused to share any of it. The aftermath of the battle resulted in the death of Thorin Oakenshield, Fili, and Kili. ]]> 2017-06-09 05:38:26 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175829211 gavinblomdahl884 https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175830688 2017-06-09 06:06:01 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175830688 gavinblomdahl884 https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175830826 "One day I'll remember.

Gandalf picks Bilbo to go on this journey with the Dwarves to recapture their treasure. The Dwarves don't see why Gandalf told him to go because he seems to be useless and of no help to them. Many times they question Gandalf on why he took Bilbo along and wonder how he will be helpful to them.]]> 2017-06-09 06:10:39 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175830958 gavinblomdahl884 https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175831886 2017-06-09 06:22:14 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175831886 gavinblomdahl884 https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175832191 The resolution of The Hobbit is when Thorin Oakenshield dies after The Battle Of Five Armies. Thorin's cousin is crowned king. After Thorin's cousin is crowned king he divides up the treasure among the victors of the battle. Most of the goblins that were in the battle have mostly vanished after the defeat and are no longer a problem for the Dwarves. ]]> 2017-06-09 06:25:27 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175832191 gavinblomdahl884 https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175833415 2017-06-09 06:38:25 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175833415 gavinblomdahl884 https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175833841 "The dwarves wanted to know why he had ever been brought at all..."

Bilbo's part Baggins and they are characterized by laziness and never doing things adventurous or exciting. When Bilbo is asked to go on this task with the Dwarves he isn't sure if he should go or not. Throughout the novel he has to decide whether to keep it safe like his family is known for or be different and take risks. ]]> 2017-06-09 06:53:27 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175835139 gavinblomdahl884 https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175835866 “This is the story of how a Baggins had an adventure, and found himself doing and saying things altogether unexpected.” (Tolkien, 4)]]> 2017-06-09 06:59:38 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175835866 gavinblomdahl884 https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175840846 Another one of the external conflicts in The Hobbit is the battle that Bilbo and the dwarves have with the dragon, Smaug.

In the novel the characters go through a lot of problems on their journey to kill Smaug and get their treasure back. During their problems it seemed like it might have been over for them and that they failed but they kept going and never gave up. The song I chose talks about never giving up even when things are hard and it seems like you won't make it through. The characters could've given up many times throughout the novel but they never did.]]> 2017-06-09 08:16:45 UTC https://padlet.com/gavinblomdahl884/udzgs6kvmeru/wish/175844188
