But journeys into the dark have a way of bringing out the light, of forcing the actors of light to evolve and emerge stronger than when they entered the darkness.

Today we wander in the dark as we explore Bilbo Baggins’s journey into darkness as told in chapter 5: Riddles in the Dark, of JRR Tolkien’s The Hobbit.
