Riddles:

What has roots as nobody sees
Is taller than trees
Up, up it goes
And yet never grows?
(mountain)

Voiceless it cries
Wingless flutters
Toothless bites
Mouthless mutters
(wind)

It cannot be seen, cannot be felt
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt
It lies behind stars
and under hills
And empty holes it fills
It comes out first and follows after
Ends life, kills laughter.
(dark)

Alive without breath
As cold as death
Never thirsty, ever drinking
All in mail never clinking.
(fish)

This thing all things devours
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers
Gnaws iron, bites steel
Grinds hard stones to meal
Slays king, ruins town
And beats mountain down.
(time)

COT:
Book quote from when Bilbo was entering the mountain and about to face a dragon:

“Going on from there was the bravest thing he ever did. The tremendous things that happened afterward were as nothing compared to it. He fought the real battle in the tunnel alone, before he ever saw the vast danger that lay in wait.”
