Give it some thought and I'm certain it will come to you. I'm sure that I'm not really too clever for you.

If I were you I'd trust that lack of confidence, since Amroth is exactly what the answer isn't. The loiterers aren't the Entwives, and if there's a division of the Elves called that I've not heard of them. As an extra freebie, Tharni is a new one on me too. With all this obscure knowledge, I'm sure you can beat my clues given time. I did try particularly hard with those that haven't yet been solved, cackling fiendishly as I wrote them; but you'll be pleased to hear that I rejected Nargûn as the answer for #1 because using something that only appears once in the HME index would just be sadistic.
