'During my imprisonment, Name, to pass the time, I recited to myself the stories Broin and I listened to during our childhood: tales of Khazad-dum, mostly, and of the Quest of the Dragon upon which our grandfathers adventured.
'Through the long hours of my captivity, I came to remember details from those stories I had long since forgotten. I remembered how Gandalf brought to Thorin Oakenshield the key and map given him by Thorin's father Thrain...who was then a captive in the dungeons of the Necromancer, in the dungeons of Dol Guldur.
'How came Gandalf into those dungeons? Why, Name, he must have found a secret way in!'
Background
