The dwarves

As I read "The Hobbit" I have fallen in love with Thorin and his buddies.  They are all equally strong, smart, and loyal.  But they also have a bit of an obsession with gold and treasures.


They used to live in The Lonely Mountain, they had a fancy city carved inside, and they were very wealthy.  Until one tragic day, when Smaug came.  Smaug is a dragon of Middle Earth and he is truly a beast - he attacked the dwarf city because he wanted their gold.  Many dwarves were killed and some were run out of their home and their city under the mountain was destroyed.  Smaug took over and settled in.

Until one day when Thorin and company make a plan to travel back to Lonely Mountain and take back what I rightfully theirs.  This long journey is what the plot of "The Hobbit" is about.
