In J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins joined Thorin II Oakenshield and his Company of Dwarves on their quest to reclaim their ancestral home of Erebor. The Dwarves had abandoned the kingdom after the great dragon Smaug took up residence in the Lonely Mountain. While the future king Thorin was the most important of the Dwarves, they all had significant parts to play in the story, and Bilbo became close friends with them. Their mission was successful, but three of these Dwarves — namely Thorin and his nephews, Fíli and Kíli — died during the Battle of the Five Armies near the end of The Hobbit.That left 10 members of Thorin’s Company alive after the events of The Hobbit: Balin, Dwalin, Óin, Glóin, Dori, Nori, Ori, Bifur, Bofur and Bombur. Even though these Dwarves were the heroes of Tolkien’s previous Middle-earth tale, he gave them little attention in The Lord of the Rings, and Peter Jackson’s film adaptations cut much of their already minimal involvement in the story. However, through dialogue at Rivendell, revelations in the Mines of Moria, and some historical notes in the appendices of The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien revealed the fates of a few key members of Thorin’s Company and hinted at the rest. So what happened to Bilbo’s Dwarven friends after their quest ended, and how did they eventually die?The members of Thorin’s Company maintained their friendships with Bilbo in the following decades. Eight years after Smaug’s death and the Battle of the Five Armies, Balin and Gandalf visited Bilbo in Bag-End. When Bilbo left the Shire for Rivendell over half a century later, three Dwarves helped him pack and accompanied him on his journey. Tolkien did not specify who these Dwarves were, but if they were willing to travel all the way from the Lonely Mountain just to help Bilbo move, they were probably his old friends from The Hobbit.
