Thanks- it's really more about descriptors than names, actually, though I couldn't pass up Finduilas and the House of Húrin.

Now, as to the new riddle, I confess to not having any clear ideas yet.

These lines-

And now I realise, that at that moment
I should've done as they had asked

I'm no hero
No songs will be sung about me or mine

I am the one who started it all

and

For I've given up everything
So I could have this one thing

feel like they should hold the key to it.

I wonder is the speaker "no hero" because of obscurity, or infamy?
