Much of this issue is predicated upon a discussion (yet to be had) concerning what we're going to do with the Second and Third Age material.
An anachronistic or out of sequence account of the Faithful Stone (or the other short story given in this text) would not necessarily be so bad. The narrative often steps out of the moment, as it were, and refers to events that have not yet happened.
As for Sador/Sadog: I have long been convinced that we cannot implement the proposed alteration of the character to a Drug. Still, a presentation of all the valid material as a single narrative is one of the main goals of this project, so there is something to be said for placing this material in the First Age, irrespective of its original context in "Of Dwarves and Men".
