"Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of solar day
To seek the pale enchanted aureate.

The dwarves of yore made mighty spells,
While hammers roughshod similar ringing bells
In places deep, where dark things slumber,
In hollow halls beneath the fells.

For ancient male monarch and elvish lord
In that location many a gleaming gilded hoard
They shaped and wrought, and light they caught
To hide in gems on hilt of sword.

On argent necklaces they strung
The flowering stars, on crowns they hung
The dragon-burn down, in twisted wire
They meshed the light of moon and sun.

Far over the misty mountains common cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere intermission of solar day,
To claim our long-forgotten gilt.

Goblets they carved there for themselves
And harps of gold; where no man delves
There lay they long, and many a song
Was sung unheard by men or elves.

The pines were roaring on the acme,
The wind was moaning in the night.
The burn down was ruddy, information technology flaming spread;
The trees like torches blazed with light.

The bells were ringing in the dale
And men looked up with faces pale;
The dragon's ire more than vehement than fire
Laid low their towers and houses frail.

The mountain smoked beneath the moon;
The dwarves, they heard the tramp of doom.
They fled their hall to dying fall
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon.

Far over the misty mountains grim
To dungeons deep and caverns dim
We must away, ere break of day,
To win our harps and golden from him!"
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit, or At that place and Back Again

And empty holes it fills,

Ends life, kills laughter."

I am the clue-finder, the web-cutter, the stinging fly. I was chosen for the lucky number.
