While on his regular trade route between the Shire and the Blue Mountains, former adventurer Bilbo saves young Fili and Kili from wolves. By dwarrow tradition, this creates a bond between him and the children's family, which takes the form of a betrothal to Thorin, who is not too pleased to learn he is duty-bound to marry to a total stranger.
