When is Smaug first introduced in The Hobbit?

Smaug's name is first mentioned in Chapter One: "An Unexpected Party" in passing by Thorin:"Old Smaug has lived there long enough now to find out anything there is to know about those caves."1We learn about Smaug and the dwarves' story later on, as Thorin explains what 13 dwarves and one wizard are doing in Bilbo Baggin's house:"There was a most specially greedy, strong and wicked worm called Smaug...."2We finally see Smaug himself quite a few chapters later in Chapter Twelve: "Inside Information.""There he lay, a vast red-golden dragon, fast asleep; a thrumming came from his jaws and nostrils, and wisps of smoke, but his fires were low in slumber. Beneath him, under all his limbs and his huge coiled tail, and about him on all sides stretching away across the unseen floors, lay countless piles of precious things, gold wrought and unwrought, gems and jewels, and silver stained red-stained in the ruddy light."3Ballantine Books paperback edition, p. 20Ballantine Books paperback edition, p. 23-24Ballantine Books paperback edition, p. 215


How can gandalf know things about Bilbo that Bilbo doesn't know?

Gandalf possesses a deep understanding of the nature of individuals and their potential, often drawing on his wisdom and experience as a powerful wizard. He can see qualities in Bilbo—such as courage and resourcefulness—that Bilbo himself may not recognize. Additionally, Gandalf's knowledge of the larger world and its history allows him to perceive how Bilbo's actions and choices could have significant consequences, even if Bilbo is unaware of them. This insight enables Gandalf to guide Bilbo on his journey of self-discovery.

Why does tolkein postpone smaug's death?

Tolkien postpones Smaug's death in "The Hobbit" to build suspense and tension in the story. By prolonging the dragon's presence, Tolkien creates a sense of danger and highlights the heroic actions of Bilbo and the other characters in their efforts to defeat Smaug. This delay also adds complexity to the narrative and allows for further development of the plot.


How did Bard know where to aim the black arrow in The Hobbitt?

In "The Hobbit," Bard the Bowman knew where to aim the black arrow because he had learned about Smaug's weak spot from a thrush that overheard a conversation between Bilbo and the dragon. The thrush revealed to Bard that Smaug had a missing scale on his underbelly, which was his only vulnerable area. Armed with this knowledge, Bard skillfully targeted the weak spot, ultimately leading to Smaug's demise.
