How Does Bilbo Uses The Ring
I will be talking about the ring that Bilbo has and how he uses it- Bilbo uses the ring for evil reasons and good reasons. My first paragraph is about how he uses it while he’s sleeping. My second paragraph is about Bilbo using the ring while trying to kill the giant spiders. Lastly, Bilbo tries to get through the goblin’s gate using the ring. Bilbo uses the ring for sleeping. He didn’t want the goblin’s, wolves or spiders to see him in the caves. They will kill him. Bilbo used the ring for good reasons. I found this information on page 76. Bilbo is in the dark with his friends trying to kill the giant spiders. He uses the ring to protect himself and friends. Again, Bilbo uses the ring for good against evil. On page 171, Bilbo and his friends

When he reached the fire, he saw it was three very large persons sitting around a very large fire of beech-logs, they were trolls. At this point Bilbo had the chance to have gone back quietly and warned his friends about the trolls but he felt the need to do a bit of good quick burgling to impress the dwarves. “He wished himself a hundred miles away-yet somehow he could not go straight back to Thorin and Company emptyhanded.” But not all ended well for poor Mr. Baggins’ as it took Gandalf to save Bilbo and the dwarves from the…

    In the beginning of the book, the main character Bilbo Baggins was not was not much of a hero. Bilbo's life before the ring was very besotted. He was much like the other hobbits. Comfort seaming and content. All Bilbo wanted to do was eat, drink, and smoke in his adequate wizened whole underhill. But this lifestyle did not last much longer due to Gandalf, the Journey, and the Ring. In chapter 1 on page 4 Bilbo stated “if you have a pipe about you, sit down and have a fill of mine!

    In support of this, in the novel, it states how Bilbo kept a secret from Thorin of the Arkenstone he had stolen. He sneakily traded with Bard, knowing that Thorin was not a fan of sharing gold, which Bilbo felt that him and the dwarves deserved. He did not know the Battle of Five Armies would become a result of his sly moves (Tolkien). This highlights how Bilbo made a sacrifice and put his friendship on the line with this betrayal and lie. Bilbo develops as a hero because he believes of the greater good and depends on his own morals, trying his best to avoid conflict. This time, instead of relying on his usual group, like he would have, he ignores the view of others and stands up for himself and his morals. Middle Earth was impacted by his actions since Bilbo now uses his traits of being a burglar in hand and changes himself with strategies. Overall, Baggins was in a difficult position, but the way he was able to escape shows how he has improved from old,scared, Hobbit-Hole Bilbo to a one of a kind…

    “Soon the goblins had a ring of smoke and flame all round the dwarves, a ring which they kept from spreading outwards; but it closed slowly until the running fire was licking the fuel piled under the trees. Smoke was in Bilbo’s eyes, he could feel the heat of the flames( even though he was so high up in the trees); and through the reek he could see the goblins dancing round and round in a circle like people round a midsummer bonfire. Outside the ring of dancing warriors stood the wolves at a respectful distance watching and waiting to devour the first person that dropped dead out of the treetops. Bilbo could hear the goblins beginning a horrible song, and with that the flames were under Gandalf the wizards tree. In a moment it caught the others and went up like a rocket, when it was just beneath Bilbo’s, he closed his eyes, ready to die when...” As it can be seen Biblo and company were in many tight spots throughout this adventure, and he could not have done it all on his own. That is where Bilbo had to use the three themes of luck, courage and good sense to overcome evil and stay alive.…
