Who will Bilbo's mithril coat be made for?
Durin or one of his kids - Durin V?
An elf-child - Celebrian? Arondir & Bronwyn's to-be-conceived child? Elrond's oldest son Elladan/Elrohir[they will be combined] who is killed tragically somehow?
Theo???
Celebrimbor makes it as a sample prototype before he ultimately decides on tanning beds?
I think it's most likely made for a dwarf since it ends up in a horde in a dwarven stronghold, though maybe we'll get to see just how a dragon hauls a bunch of tiny things to a central location. (A clawful at a time??? Smaug compares his claws to spears, not something I associate with gathering or holding. Maybe dragons have something like a gizzard, like birds do, and they consume and regurgitate a load at a time.)
Oooh, how many dragons will we get to see? I assume there will be some acknowledgement of the seven dwarven rings and "gold sickness" attracting dragons. I hope they don't consolidate into just Smaug.
I've only just started reading about the show development, it does look like the showrunners are aware of the importance of
Cirdan's beard!
