			It is not. I think the straight clue is pretty direct here, and it's a major chunk of NoME (though I know that doesn't help much). New page: NUMENOR - The numinous root, otherwise known as a gift. AROMA - Perfume from one Italian city. 3. T - Chronic rails, year by year. UNBEGOTTEN - A French one, conceived by the first to rise. RADAGAST - Not grey... not gray, a German guest. ELLIPSE - In the round, Hell ends, and I am retro-telepathy. ORIGINS - Let's begin: Oh, snigger backwards, but with me instead of the example. FEAR - Spiritually scary. MELIAN - The queen's scrambled citrus - o! Change it for two others. ENTERTAINMENT - Go in, men in the corruption, and enjoy it. hS

			Precisely! The first third of NoME is basically all timelines.  NUMENOR - The numinous root, otherwise known as a gift. AROMA - Perfume from one Italian city. TIMELINES - Chronic rails, year by year. UNBEGOTTEN - A French one, conceived by the first to rise. RADAGAST - Not grey... not gray, a German guest. ELLIPSE - In the round, Hell ends, and I am retro-telepathy. ORIGINS - Let's begin: Oh, snigger backwards, but with me instead of the example. FEAR - Spiritually scary. MELIAN - The queen's scrambled citrus - o! Change it for two others. ENTERTAINMENT - Go in, men in the corruption, and enjoy it. Theme: topics in The Nature of Middle-earth And over to Pervinca.  hS

			Very good password, hS, and very topical! Here's one I made earlier: 1. Two French determiners add five for the life of him, but get her instead. 2. Destroy portal – destroy it all! Sauron would have, if he’d thought of it! 3. See him claim a glory within it. 4. See him lambast, then lose his way in the confusion of making something soapy. 5. Loan offal (for a feast?) around here? 6. Is David’s enemy just slightly confused here? 7. Additional potassium mixes with a little lithium before he’s revealed. 8. Latin hurrah meets Bible girl bereft of alternating current to reveal him. 9. See him change direction on the way to Damascus – onerously, for a while. 10. Behold! Tear! Reassemble him! 11. Here, it’s broad and troubled around a London suburb.

			I wonder if 7 is MELKOR. MORE + K + L(i... or ithium, I suppose).

			Try 3.  Just read it.  It's easy. 10. 2 synonyms, then scramble them.

			No, it's the literal meaning of tear, as in rip, (but not rip).

			1. Your, we hear, inside an element. For him. 2. Troubled precipitation reveals her. 3. Noah's son returns. A broken reward and a direction lead to her. 4. Behold, a stern and troubled man! 5. Gaseous mixture meets a place he lives in. Twist it to find him. 6. A star loses Cobb. Add a Roman 1000 and a broken round ball for him
