Bilbo and the Dwarves leave the beauty of grass, birds, flowers, and their faithful guide, Gandalf, and plunge into an ugly and ominous forest full of evil surprises. Mirkwood, once called Greenwood the Great, poses many challenges for The Company. They try to eat and are either unable to catch prey or what they catch is virtually inedible. They want to drink but fear the effects of the dark waters. They hope to join a company of elves for supper but the lights go out whenever they get near. Finally caught by gigantic spiders, they are saved by the heroic acts of none other than Bilbo from The Shire and his letter opener sword, Sting. Unfortunately, the end begins with as much hope as the beginning with the company being captured by well-intentioned wood elves.
