THIS STORY IS DISCONTINUED AND HAS BEEN FOR YEARS. IT IS NOT BEING UPDATED. I mistakingly did something that bumped up the "Updated" date. It was an accident, which unfortunately I can't undo.

"Do you see it?" Nuil asked pointing to the stars. Thorin watched her hand, tracing the outline of a ring of stars. "My father called it the 'mountain crown', abad bovan. He saw it over Erebor.
