I turn to Roac, still stationary on the ground, to thank him for relaying the great news but he responds with infuriating news. People are eager for a share of the spoil? Who are they to think that my treasure is theirs to have? I would fight to death before I let anyone touch or even look at my family’s vast heirlooms. It is rightfully mine and no one else’s! Battle is undoubtedly

    July-Day 18 I can barely pull myself out of bed today, it's cold outside the blankets that have kept me safe since my descent to dreamland where I have been since 6:30 PM.

Tolkien’s The Hobbit, for the dragon Smaug’s ostensibly antagonistic role left the reader ambivalent.…
