This is Thorin Oakenshield to Gandalf, referring to his so-called "halls".
Quote:
Gandalf looked at him with wonder. 'That is strange, Thorin Oakenshield ,' he said. 'For I have thought of you also; and though I am on my way to the Shire, it was in my mind that is the way also to your halls.'
'Call them so, if you will,' said Thorin. 'They are only poor lodgings in exile. But you would be welcome there, if you would come. For they say that you are wise and know more than any other of what goes on in the world; and I have much on my mind and would be glad of your counsel.'
