<p>Happy Hobbit Day! On Monday, September 22nd, Wizards of the Coast celebrated the birthdays of both Bilbo Baggins and his nephew Frodo by teasing something new out of Middle-Earth. What could it be? Well, to make a long story short, we don't know yet. However, we can always make some educated guesses, so read on, and we'll do just that!</p>
<h2>The Social Media Hobbit Day Post</h2>
<p>On Hobbit Day, Wizards of the Coast shared <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DO6YB25gYOG/">an interesting video</a> on its major social media channels. Timed at less than a minute long, it shows a Hobbit-Hole in the Shire. However, this is likely not just <em>any</em> Hobbit-Hole, but is likely Bag-End. For those of you who may have missed any of the particulars from <em>Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-Earth</em>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Frodo Baggins" href="#" target="_blank">Frodo Baggins</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> lives in Bag-End. Furthermore, he inherited Bag-End from his uncle, Bilbo Baggins. Bilbo, much like Frodo, was an adventurer, consigned by <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Gandalf the Grey" href="#" target="_blank">Gandalf the Grey</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> to venture out and find his destiny. Both chanced upon a particularly ornery (and at times rather pathetic) creature called Gollum, and both found themselves in the possession of <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="The One Ring" href="#" target="_blank">The One Ring</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Frodo Baggins"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Gandalf the Grey"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Gollum, Patient Plotter"></div></div>
<p>To this end, because Wizards of the Coast haven't yet confirmed anything surrounding this social media post, we don't know if this is a continuation of <em>Lord of the Rings</em> product or if it's really <em>The Hobbit</em>. However, chances are high that this is the latter, due to the runes etched into the door of Bag-End. Whether this is a full tentpole set or a <em>Secret Lair</em> drop remains up in the air, but the possibility that this is about Bilbo's unexpected journey is pretty high.</p>
<p>With that, I want to open the floor to you, dear readers! What do you think? Will we see a new set come of this? Or will this be a <em>Secret Lair</em> drop? We are likely to find out this Friday with the preview panel for MagicCon Atlanta. But what are your guesses? Sound off in the comments below!</p>
