Title: Clarity of Purpose, Chap. 8
Chapter Summary: The Council of Khazad-dûm is convened: Denethor and Théoden trade barbs, and Saruman meets Thorin in private with a proposition. Bilbo mostly tries to go as unnoticed as possible, for what input could a mere hobbit have into these grand affairs?
Relationship: Thorin/Bilbo
Characters: Bilbo Baggins, Thorin Oakenshield, Gandalf, Balin, Dwalin, Saruman, Arwen, Glorfindel, Elladan, Elrohir, Theoden, Denethor, Galadriel
Fandom: Hobbit/Lord of the Rings. Begins in 2968, twenty-six years after the events of "Clarity of Vision" and fifty years before the canonical events of "Lord of the Rings." Thus, characters' ages and the geopolitical situation will be different than LoTR canon!

Summary: Thorin Oakenshield and Bilbo Baggins have been parted for many years now, despite the love they bear each other. Now Thorin's research has uncovered a dire threat to Middle Earth--the Ring he carried a little while and then gave to Bilbo. Together with a group of companions composed of the different Free Peoples of Middle Earth, they must attempt to destroy the artifact before its Dark Lord can re-capture it.

( Everyone’s eyes turned to Bilbo, who wished desperately that the stone floor of the council room would open and swallow him up. )

( Apparently the wizards have decided to gang up on the dwarves. )
