What shall we do, what shall we do! Escaping goblins to be caught by wolves is like out of the frying pan and into the fire!
it is horrible being all alone.
These are Rustbell Rabbits! I'd like to see them try!!!
Of the twelve companions of Thorin, ten remained. Fili and Kili had fallen defending him with shield and body, for he was their mother’s elder brother.
Good Morning!" said Bilbo, and he meant it. The sun was shining, and the grass was very green. But Gandalf looked at him from under long bushy eyebrows that stuck out further than the brim of his shady hat. "What do you mean?" he said. "Do you wish m...
