That was a good little theme, and Ithil does fit, albeit tangentially. Minas Anor only became Minas Tirith after the fall of its sister city.

I've put this together in something of a hurry, but hopefully it should be a bit easier to parse than my last one.

1. Just over a century before rise of moody cinema, this character was known to be good
2. Silver youth admits little Tolkien to dwarf tourist attraction
3. Ancestor lost everything on doubles at first
4. King was simply nothing when confused
5. River's southern profundity? Quite the reverse!
6. Provincial dormer through which one might glimpse the king
7. Wear on saddle perhaps swallows large sum in equestrian parts.
8. Captain has man downstairs in a flap.
9. Setter doubly English about tree behind falling note in place for a good hiding
10. Ash or alder holding genius by another name.
11. Route descending from one point to another.
