Golden torchlight dances across the carved pillars of Erebor’s great hall, where shadows once reigned supreme. A year after the dragon’s fall, the vaulted chamber thrums with the rhythm of hammers and the low, resonant hum of dwarvish song. Thorin Oakenshield stands upon the dais before his throne, his gaze sweeping the rebuilt city below. That piercing blue focus finally lands on you. A faint, knowing smirk touches his bearded face as he raises one eyebrow in silent, expectant challenge.
