<em>Which detail from the hobbit develops the theme of blind greed?</em>
<em>The correct answer is d: the dwarves are so worried the elves will steal their treasure that they lie about their journey through Mirkwood.</em>
<em>It is believed in the story that Smaug cursed the dwarves’ gold. This curse causes blind greed to the dwarves, making them more suspicious about the elves. Apart from that, elves have an ancient treasure in those mines. This curse is also known as Dragon Sickness, mostly seen in Thorin when he became obsessed with his gold. In the story, “Dragon Sickness” can be taken as literal or figurative. In its literal meaning it is mentioned that Smaug illed the gold for living and staying for so long in the mines. In the figurative sense, “dragon sickness" can be taken as the fever for having so much wealth.</em>
