He knew that the goblet that Bilbo had taken was gone. Considering the tens of thousands of items in the trove, that is remarkable.

Who learns of Smaug's death and might be interested in the treasure in the hobbit?

With Smaug dead, the treasure is up for grabs. Dain Ironfoot and the Dwarves, Thranduil and the Elves, and the Men of Laketown all learn this and fight each other for it. Eventually a Goblin army arrives out of the Misty Mountains to battle. The Dwarves, Elves, and Men join forces to fight the Goblins.


What did Bilbo and the dwarves find most disturbing when they finally decided to investigate the room where Smaug kept his treasure?

The cave was dry and unoccupied. What they didn't know was that it was the 'front door' for the goblins living in the mountain. The goblins discovered them and captured them, but not before Bilbo shouted a warning that allowed Gandalf to escape capture and ultimately rescue them.

Is gold worth fighting for in The Hobbit?

No, it's NOT worth fighting for because everyone just wants it to become rich. I really don't see the point in fighting for gold just for power. Obviously everyone in the story really needs a change if heart. The Goblins hear that Smaug is dead and that there is hoarded gold that nobody is claiming...Ho selfish and greedy! The gold shouldn't be fought over because it really is Thorin's treasure because he is The King Under The Mountain for crying out loud! It's The King Under The Mountain's gold not gobbling, or the elves', the wargs, orcs, or even the People of Lake Town's. Although because Bard killed the Dragon, Smaug, he and his family should get some of the treasure...but of course there's Thorin being greedy not wanting to share. Greediness is one of the moods in this novel. Take a self assessment, would YOU want to share with the man that killed the dragon allowing you to be the King? I know I would!:)

Why does tolkein postpone smaug's death?

Tolkien postpones Smaug's death in "The Hobbit" to build suspense and tension in the story. By prolonging the dragon's presence, Tolkien creates a sense of danger and highlights the heroic actions of Bilbo and the other characters in their efforts to defeat Smaug. This delay also adds complexity to the narrative and allows for further development of the plot.
