When he felt bold and hungry enough, Gollum, using his magic ring to become invisible, throttled them and ate them. He soon found out that Orcs were living close by and used the network of tunnels adjoining his.

Following the flow of an underground stream, he made his way to a dark cave and made his home there. This lake harbored a species of blind fish, Gollum's main food source throughout the years he spent there.Īfter being exiled from his family of Stoors in the late twenty-third century of the Third Age, Gollum sought shelter from the Sun under the nearby mountain range, the Misty Mountains. The cave housed a small subterranean lake of ice cold water in which sat a tiny island which supplied Gollum with a small amount of protection from nearby Goblin-town.


It was close to the goblin-hall by following an estimated thirty miles of long, dark, and narrow tunnel. The cave was located in the depths of the Misty Mountains near Goblin-town.
