Tolkien mentions receiving letters from Horus Engels regarding a German translation, and while Engels doesn't explicitly propose himself as a translator, he sends illustrations that Tolkien finds too "Disnified" for their taste, with portrayals of Bilbo and Gandalf not aligning with his envisioned characters. He informs Unwin about their upcoming move to a small house at 3 Manor Road, expressing hope that it will resolve domestic issues, and give him some time to finish his 'magnum opus' (The Lord of the Rings).
