Deep under the Misty Mountains lies a complicated network of tunnels and caverns. In one such cave there is a deep, cold lake with an island in the center, inhabited by a creature known as Gollum. Here we find Gollum perched on his island, seething with rage, having just discovered that his precious ring is missing. In the light of Sting's glow you can just make out the scene.

"On and on he went, and down and down; and still he heard no sound of anything except the occasional whirr of a bat by his ears, which startled him at first, till it became too frequent to bother about....He stopped and he could hear, when he listened hard, drops drip-drip-dripping from an unseen roof into the water below." (p. 78-79)

"Deep down here by the dark water lived old Gollum, a small slimy creature. I don't know where he came from, nor who or what he was. He was Gollum - as dark as darkness except for two big round pale eyes in his thin face. He had a little boat, and he rowed about quite quietly on the lake; for lake it was, wide and deep and deadly cold." (p. 79)

"The sound came hissing louder and sharper, and as he looked towards it, to his alarm Bilbo now saw two small points of light peering at him. As suspicion grew in Gollum's mind, the light of his eyes burned with a pale flame." (p. 92)
