(Whoosh!) You two enjoyed that, didn't you? You can tell who grew up watching "I Spy" and "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." around here.
As regarding the Faithful Men prisoners, the tampering with the time lines is a real concern. O-n-n-n the other hand - if we were destined to retrieve Second Age Halflings, then perhaps any of our actions would be sanctioned by The Great Conductor in the Sky, so long as it is for good.
Could any of us really turn our backs on imprisoned men? Gandalf's lessons of pity should be remembered here. Also; perhaps Mith's very fate could be decided by his actions. He might die if he did NOT rescue the Men.
Go not to Skinchangers for advise...
