What Happened to the Arkenstone After The Hobbit? – LOTR Lore

The Arkenstone, the Heart of the Mountain, was buried with Thorin Oakenshield after the Battle of Five Armies—but what really happened to this legendary gem throughout the ages of Middle-earth? In this deep dive, we explore the complete fate of the Arkenstone through Tolkien's writings, from its burial beneath Erebor to its role during the War of the Ring and beyond. Discover why it couldn't be a Silmaril despite popular theories, how Gandalf's silence about the gem speaks volumes, what the legendary sword Orcrist has to do with protecting it, and why burying this treasure helped save both Erebor and Dale from Sauron's forces. We'll connect threads from The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion, and Tolkien's letters to reveal how this "simple" burial connects to the fate of the Dwarves, the Dominion of Men, and even the end of the world itself. Join us for a journey back to the Lonely Mountain to uncover the secrets most fans never knew about Middle-earth's most beautiful and dangerous gem.
