*Smacks self in head*
Butterflies! the emperors were the butterflies at the tops of the trees in Mirkwood! But what color. Alas I'm at work, and no Hobbit to look it up. I will hazard a guess.......... Blue!

Blackboar - "poiple" is how a person from Brooklyn, New York would say "purple".
And no - not purple or blue!

OK. Nuff o' that. Black; velvety black emperor butterflies.

*snicker*
Poiple? Or Purple? I was constantly thinking: I saw elvenkings and dwarflords in 'the hobbit' but am I that blind that I missed a whole emperor? The butterflies in Mirkwood, right? When Bilbo climbs in a tree to see where they are? I completely forgot that scene. I think barrelrider110 got it.

I believe that the answer is Fundin? Correct me if I am wrong! (sort of hoping that I am 'cause I can't think of a decent question!)

Right-o Vortûriel.
Welcome to Entmoot. Your turn to post a question.

Ok, what were Bilbo's last words before the Battle of the Five Armies?

Actually I'm quite pleased with my current financial state.
Okay, how many times does Beorn ask where the other dwarves are before he meets the whole company?

That was quick! Unfortunately I'm at college and don't have a copy handy either. Let me think this through....
They come two at a time, except for the last lot who get bored and come anyway, so asks 1 comes 2 asks 2 comes 4 asks 3 comes 6 asks 4 comes 8 asks 5 comes 12. There are 13 dwarves but I guess the last could have come at any time. By my reckoning you are correct.

I just counted six....once is after Gandalf and Bilbo are there, twice is after Thorin and Dori arrive, Thrice is after Nori and Ori, four times comes after Balin and Dwalin settle in, five times after Fili and Kili, sixth time after Oin and Gloin join, which brings in Bifur and Bofur, and poor old Bombur just follows after them, not waiting to be asked!
ugh! This is one of those things that makes my brain hurt, Who's right?

I think Lizra is right, I counted too. Could be 7? I usually miss one.
