Hobbit, Drabbled, The
12. Inside Information
Third time pays for all! Thus the burglar slips on his ring and enters the dark passage. The red-golden dragon lies dreaming – he won't miss a small cup.
But dragons always know. Belching forth fire, he rises from the mountain, hunting for a thief. All he finds, though, are ponies.
Now seeking information, the burglar sneaks back into the golden hall. Rings, however, don't hide all and the mighty dragon seeks to trap himself a fly.
Instead, Thief Barrel-rider goes and steals the greatest treasure of all.
Swift wings carry the secret to Lake-town, where it will be useful indeed.
