Okay peeps! For those of you who read Gollum's Past, here's Smaug's Past!
We know Smaug:
-destroys towns -Steal plunder -Eats ponies (haha) -Is VERY SMART/CUNNING -not nice. Yeah. - Is a dragon (just thought I'd put that in there)
Any CREATIVE ideas about where he:
-Was born/grew up? -Learned to be so clever -Learned to speak (seriously.) -Got the idea that he should be evil
On p. 23 it says 'they hardly know a good bit of work from a bad....' so maybe he doesn't see himself as evil, just everyone else. and then since Gandalf can speak wolf I guess it's not unusual that dragons talk.
