“Balin and Dwalin were written as Thorin’s closest confidantes, Balin as the Old Warrior advisor and father figure, Dwalin as an equal in all but name, his friend, his advisor, and his sparring partner. Thorin has a relationship with every one of his men, but thoese two and his sister’s sons, Fili and Kili, are particularly close.”

No, indeed it is hardly possible to separate you even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not.
SAM & FRODO IN THE LORD OF THE RINGS
"Away eastward the sun was rising red out of the mists that lay thick around the world. Touches with gold and red the autumn trees seemed to be sailing rootless in a shadowy sea."
The Fellowship of the Ring, J. R. R. Tolkien
“I’m not afraid! I’m up for it. I’ll give him a taste of Dwarfish iron right up his jacksie!”
“Bilbo, allow me to introduce: Fili, Kili; Oin, Gloin; Dwalin, Balin; Bifur, Bofur, Bombur; Dori, Nori, Ori; and the leader of our company, Thorin Oakenshield.”

I already loved Gollum as is (and frankly, he's right, Bilbo absolutely cheated), but ever since I found out he's a Cain character, I feel like I have no choice but to absolutely root for him. I loved the story of Cain and Abel ever since I was a child. This is so up my alley

'Frodo! Mr. Frodo, my dear!' cried Sam, tears almost blinding him. 'It's Sam, I've come!'
During the last month and a half I’ve been working on some “The Hobbit” and LOTR illustrations
When I’ll be finished they are going to become a zine that I’m going to sell digitally on my ko-fi shop and in physical copies at cons
Here all the 15 illustrations of the first part:

bringing back an oldie two little cuties
New url :) i like the simplicity of "merrydol" but I don't like how unrecognizable it is if you don't care about tom bombadill and his song (and even if you do i don't think you'd immediately think about it)
