[Child of the 7th Age]

An escort sounds great! Would the last part be by swimming? Would you come in with us, and then leave

The Eldars will already have met Pio, but they have not seen Mithadan yet. This might be a good chance for them to meet the Man who owns the Lonely Star. So I hope you could come in.

Mith, you are in an interesting situation. By definition, you are the "enemy" at least in the hobbits' eyes. The only men the hobbits have met in the past 60 years have been real stinkers in the tombs. Would they trust you? You would need to overcome that distrust.

I believe that some of the more educated would remember the legends of the House of Beor in the First Age. Remember, when the hobbits came to Beleriand, they came in together with the Men of that House. Maura's father fought and died with the Men in Dorthonion (at the outlaw's hideout of Tarn Aeluin). Perhaps the hobbits need to be reminded of that history.
