Hall Of Fire Chats This Weekend
Frode @ 6:29 pm EST

A chance meeting:

The focus of thehalloffire for the next months will be JRR Tolkiens 'The Hobbit'. But before starting with the book we will take a closer look at the events prior to the Unexpected Party at Bag End. How did the most succesfull business enterprise of the Third Age get started? What were the motivations of the founders of Thorin & Company? We shall begin with Gandalf and Thorin Oakenshield running into one another on the Road to Bree. A chance-meeting as we say in Middle-earth.

Suggested Reading:

The quest of Erebor (Unfinished tales)
Durins Folk (Appendix A of The Lord of the Rings)
