Hero's Journey - The Hobbit
Bilbo begins in his hobbit hole. The special world begins when the dwarves show up at his
house. The ordinary world begins to slip away when something tookish wakes up inside of him.
- ANS-Ordinary World: "The Hero's home, the safe haven upon which the Special World and the
Journey's outcome must be compared." The Journey begins in the Ordinary World, travels to
the Special World, and returns to the Ordinary World.

When Gandalf shows up and tells him about his adventure. - ANS-Call to Adventure: The Call to
Adventure sets the story rolling by disrupting the comfort of the Hero's Ordinary World,
presenting a challenge or quest that must be undertaken.

Yes, he says no right away and says adventures are not good. He also refuses by saying good
morning. He also hides in his own home because he didn't want the pressure of the dwarves
making him go somewhere. He also is a little happy when he wakes up and no one is there -
ANS-Refusal of the Call: "A Hero often refuses [or is reluctant] to take on the Journey because
of fears and insecurities that have surfaced from the Call to Adventure. The Hero may not be
willing to make changes, preferring the safe haven of the Ordinary World. This becomes an
essential stage that communicates the risks involved in the Journey that lies ahead. Without

enemies are the trolls. He is tested by being tasked with going up to the trolls and stealing one
of their money purses. He fails at this test but starts to learn the rules and ways of the special
world. This paragraph explains Bilbo's allies, his enemies, and the tests he is faced with. -
ANS-Tests, Allies, Enemies: "Having crossed the threshold, the Hero faces Tests, encounters
Allies, confronts Enemies, and learns the rules of this Special World. Allies are earned, a
Sidekick may join up, or an entire Hero team forged.
