Grór of Nibbin-grod

Grór of Nibbin-grod

Grór was brother of feudal Lord Grár of Nibbin-grod at the end-T.A.

2941 T.A. Grór of the Nan-i-Naugrim claims compensation for his mines in the mountains, and is mollified by the surrender of all but Thorin’s necessities and some portable wealth (Shire. 168).

He was sent by Grár to intercept Thorin Oakenshield. Riding southeast from Gamwich, Grór confronted Thorin on the day Gandalf chose Bilbo for his role as “burglar” on the quest to the mountain. After a night of violent argument in the woods outside Bywater, Thorin turned over to Grór all his possessions save those absolutely needed for the journey, as payment for the debts of his house. (Shire. 168)
