Chapter+Five+(Use+of+Power)

In Chapter Five, Bilbo finds a ring in the cave and puts it in his pocket. He also meets Gollum, a strange creature that hasn't gone out of the tunnels in a long time. Gollum wants to eat Bilbo, but but Bilbo strikes up a deal. If Gollum gets a riddle wrong, he has to show Bilbo the way out, but if Bilbo gets it wrong, Gollum gets to eat him. Bilbo gets it wrong, but Gollum discovers a possesion of his is missing. Bilbo slips on the ring, and Gollum goes running. Bilbo escaped because the ring makes him turn invisible. This was to Bilbo's advantage and was a helpful use of power.
