369 Words2 Pages

There are many different kinds and types of creatures that appear in Bilbo's adventure. One of the creatures is a Dragon. A quote showing the dragons placement on the social hierarchy, is “Your information is antiquated., he snapped ‘I am armoured above and below with iron scales and hard gems. No blade can pierce me.”(Tolkien 226).

    For example in one of the paragraphs it states, “Then the hobbit slipped on his ring, and warned by the echoes to take more than hobbits care to make no sound.” This shows how Bilbo uses the ring to his advantage so the dragon doesn't see him. Another time he uses the ring is when he makes an offer to the dwarves that he will go back down to check if the dragon was still asleep, “Now I will make you an offer. I have got my ring and I will creep down this very noon—then if ever Smaug ought to be napping—and see what he is up to.”
