Re: Re

The Hobbit tells the story of the Eagles joining in the Battle of Five Armies. And I always considered the orcs an wolves one army and the Eagles the 5th. But you are right, Balin. The Battle was named the Battle of the Five Armies before the Eagles arrived.

Let's Keep It With The Hobbit

How many arrows did Bard shoot before he killed Smaug?

Note: Even my memory may fail me here.. please double check the answers for me. I don't own The Hobbit.

Re: Let's Keep It With The Hobbit

Bard killed the dragon with his last arrow. I can't find a number telling how many that is.

Re: Let's Keep It With The Hobbit

I think it was two, but like I said my memory is kinda shaky here... Judges? &lt;ding!&gt;
That'll work for me. Your turn, sir.

Re: Let's Keep It With The Hobbit

Dwalin.

To clarify the earlier Bard question, when Bard shot the Black Arrow it was his last remaining arrow. He had been fighting the dragin during several fly-bys, so he must have shot many arrows in the battle.

Re: Let's Keep It With The Hobbit

BTW, coincidence again: in the Eddic &quot;Rune-lore&quot;, it is stated that Daîn was the first of the Elves, and, Dwalin the first of the Dwarves (who ever were). A myth-lore joke by Prof Tolkien?

Fatty Bolger - Clue#1

I'll give you a clue .... Fatty did not give in to 'The Chief' and Sharky. In fact he formed a rebel band. But eventually he was caught!

Does that help?

Re: Fatty Bolger - Clue#1

He said it to Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli when they found him in Fangorn, didn't he? When one of the three remarked that he now seemed more dangerous?
