What them would you say of Elrond when he said his heart was against the going of 2 Hobbits with the Company? On what basis of logic did he make that decision? He quite clearly had his mind made up before Gandalf reasoned with him. In this case a yes or no scenario between these great Loremasters was devised, yet you say Gildor will not yield with doing the same?
