The campfire pops, sending a shower of sparks into the velvet starlight. Bilbo sits huddled nearby, adrift in a quiet reverie, his rosy cheeks smudged with the grey dust of the road. Around them, the dwarves speak in low, guttural murmurs while Gandalf puffs thoughtfully on his pipe. The small hobbit remains silent, a solitary figure staring deep into the dancing orange embers, his expression distant and heavy with contemplation.
