Bilbo and the company about to slay the Monster. Marshall, E. Word Studies, "Arkenstone". Categories Rings and jewels Dwarven objects. Fan Feed 1 Sauron 2 Melkor 3 Gandalf. Universal Conquest Wiki. He wants the Arkenstone to be the first pick of his chosen fourteenth. Why do Bilbo and Balin want to leave the main gateway? Because they think it is the place where Smaug is most likely to return.
Smaug had told Bilbo that the arkenstone would corrupt Thorin. When Bilbo ran into Thorin trying to escape Erebor, Bilbo could tell that smaug was right about the stone. He wants the Arkenstone because it is the heirloom of his house, a remembrance of his father and grandfather, a really cool and sparkly gem, and finally, because having it, as with with any other impressive gold and gems, would enable him to rally other dwarves to his cause.
Reality: The Arkenstone is not a Silmaril. First, Tolkien wrote that the two lost Silmarils would remain lost until the end of Arda. One of them being found by the Dwarves would contradict this. Second, a Silmaril is a gemstone hallowed by Varda which would not suffer the touch of mortal or evil hands. In this film the Arkenstone was a heart-shaped jewel of Earth and was later used as an arrowhead to a large crossbow made of old mining machines by Bilbo and company to kill Slag the Dragon.
What does the Arkenstone represent? The stone belonged to Thorin's father, Thrain, and Thorin will do anything to get it back. For Thorin, the Arkenstone is a symbol of his family, and of his family's lost kingdom and greatness. For Gollum, the thing he loves most in the world is his ring of invisibility.
How does Bilbo trick smaug into revealing his weak spot? Bilbo and the dwarves must hide inside the mountain. Smaug eventually returns inside and pretends to sleep. When Bilbo comes back in to attempt to find the dragon's weak spot, Smaug "awakes" and smells the intruder, who is once again invisible.
He convinces Smaug to show him the strength of the armor on his belly. Was the Arkenstone a silmaril? The Arkenstone was a Silmaril, probably the one thrown into a fiery pit by Maedhros, and found its way geologically? Tolkien wrote that the two lost Silmarils would remain lost until the end of Arda. It is not a Silmaril. Whoever controls the Arkenstone is considered the rightful king of all of the dwarves 7 families.
Thorin wants to obtain the Arkenstone as with it he can unite all the dwarves of Middle Earth to help him fight against Smaug. As in the book, the Arkenstone is given by Bilbo who, it is revealed, recovered it during his escape from Smaug to Thranduil and Bard, in order to try to force Thorin to yield a share of the treasure. There is a riddle-like quality to this answer.
