Haha, I'm not sure one needs much overdrive to appreciate that particular line... :D

During his capture he was mostly annoyed with the general concept of supposed Highland savagery, rather than worried it might have consequences for his own safety.

That's a good point! He's surprised by the extent of Ewen's gentlemanliness and hospitality, but he doesn't seem to doubt that Ewen will follow the basic rules of honourable wartime conduct. No, there hasn't been any more about the other captives, although I get the impression Keith is not terribly concerned over their safety anyway.

(And wow, I am acquiring quite the reading list for nonfiction about the period now. Thanks for the historical notes!)

A while ago I wrote up a list of useful Jacobite non-fiction, and I was thinking of digging it out, updating and posting it to go along with the read-along, if people would find that useful—would you?
