Anyone thinking of Further Adventures still in the style of, or using the boundaries of the Starter Set?
I had an idea for a trigger of "Two dwarf wandering merchants, going through the Shire, witnessing Bilbo vanish before their eyes and naturally getting curious".
(a) the dwarves are adversaries - and wish to secure Bilbo's secret vanishing trick by whatever means they can. Other hobbits have to rescue Bilbo and lead these dwarves astray, while Bilbo protects his secret - from everyone!
(b) the dwarves are PCs themselves, and the adventure describes either what they learn / or how they learn about Bilbo's vanishing "skill". (And let's not forget that Thorin's company knew about Bilbo's magic ring at the time of the escape from the Elvenking's cellar.)
Does anyone else have other stories to expand the Starter Set?

I did write an adventure that was published in
Other Minds (issue #24, January 2021) where a group of hobbit youths went on a fishing excursion to Lake Evendim and ran into trouble involving getting trapped in some ruins and visited by the ghost of a Dunedain woman. The heroes had to locate and rescue the youths, but a variant could have the young hobbits solve the problem themselves.
