Which makes me think I am right, and the theme is people with two siblings.

I was the one hiding in the corner. :p Ner ner ner! ... oh. #7 NERWEN, perhaps? hS |

Is the password Elfhild or Elfhelm? Yea or nay? |
Women with 'wen' in their name: Morwen, Nerwen, Emerwen, Arwen, Urwen....

Maybe it is Urwen, with the phrase being 'You are' or 'U R'.

MENELDUR: Repair and reign through turmoil, he does. Move along one.
LALAITH: Back number thirteen. Initially lose trust, but replace with direction. See her! FIRIEL: She reforms one long-serving prisoner. SILMARIEN: A dwarf sickens, but is restored by her. 5. No ease of the womb, we hear. At sixes and sevens, he is. 6. He arranged a note of complaint. NERWEN: Was she heard to mock or gloat at the time? Sorry ... did not see that Huey had worked out what 'at sixes and sevens' was indicating. Things have been moving very fast! |
And if my supposition that individuals with two siblings is correct, then that leaves one of (Turin, Nienor, Isilme, Faramir or Artamir) as one of the remaining answers.
|
Oh, oh, is the password ELFSTAN. There, I've nabbed it.
|
Elfstan - sibling to Firiel
Lalaith - Sibling to Turin and Nienor Nerwen - Sibling to Finrod and Orodreth and Angrod and Aegnor Meneldur - Sibling to Silmarien Meaning that 6 is Angrod (GROAN + D) |
MENELDUR: Repair and reign through turmoil, he does. Move along one.
LALAITH: Back number thirteen. Initially lose trust, but replace with direction. See her! FIRIEL: She reforms one long-serving prisoner. SILMARIEN: A dwarf sickens, but is restored by her. 5. No ease of the womb, we hear. At sixes and sevens, he is. 6. He arranged a note of complaint. 7. Was she heard to mock or gloat at the time? Sorry ... did not see that Huey had worked out what 'at sixes and sevens' was indicating. Things have been moving very fast! EDIT: THIS WAS THE POST I MEANT TO ADD 'NERWEN' INTO ... BUT I HAD TO LEAVE WORK IN A HURRY! |
Does that mean Angrod, the password and the theme are all incorrect? And here I was certain I had it...
|
The T clue must be either Turin or Orodreth. Not sure which one.
|
Of the womb is UTERINE. UTERIN sounds like UTERINE. If we remove NE (for No Ease) we get Turin.

MENELDUR: Repair and reign through turmoil, he does. Move along one.
LALAITH: Back number thirteen. Initially lose trust, but replace with direction. See her! FIRIEL: She reforms one long-serving prisoner. SILMARIEN: A dwarf sickens, but is restored by her. TURIN: No ease of the womb, we hear. At sixes and sevens, he is. ANGROD: He arranged a note of complaint. N: Was she heard to mock or gloat at the time? THEME: BROTHER & SISTER PAIRS Please give the reasoning for Turin and Angrod, though, (apart from them completing the pairs and starting with T and A respectively!) |

However, TURIN is UTERINE with NO E'S (which sounds like (we hear) 'no ease.' |
6 is Angrod (GROAN + D)
|
And I think you forgot to include NERWEN......
|
Well done on ANGROD, and good effort on TURIN.
Sorry, the posts in this thread have been coming so thick and fast today, I literally haven't always seen them in time, or they've arrived while I've been writing a post. The theme is specifically brother and sister pairs. ELFSTAN and FIRIEL are the two children of Elanor Gardner/Gamgee and Fastred of Greenholm. |

Do I get to make a new one now? |

THEME: BROTHER & SISTER PAIRS I thought I'd added Nerwen in. I was about to, but I had to pack up quickly to get a lift home from my boss. Well done all, and over to Urwen! |
Enjoy, for I am an oathkeeper, like Feanor.
1. Diminish, with direction, for a noble maiden. 2. The Nazgul are in disarray, alternatively, for her. 3. Note a wild goose for her. 4. Combine a note and an element with wrath for her. 5. A whole country for her. 6. Bloomers are in turmoil for her. 7. Initially, ride or move. Not old? Reverse and see her. 8. Before direction and a dwarf woman, she appears. |
8. Erendis.
Ere + n + dis. |
1. Diminish, with direction, for a noble maiden.
2. The Nazgul are in disarray, alternatively, for her. 3. Note a wild goose for her. 4. Combine a note and an element with wrath for her. 5. A whole country for her. 6. Bloomers are in turmoil for her. 7. Initially, ride or move. Not old? Reverse and see her. ERENDIS: Before direction and a dwarf woman, she appears. |
4. Maybe AMARIE.
Am (Americium) + A (note) + IRE. |
5. RIAN? (Iran).
|
For 4, right reasoning, wrong element
For 5, take the 'whole' part of the clue into account too. |
1. Diminish, with direction, for a noble maiden.
2. The Nazgul are in disarray, alternatively, for her. 3. Note a wild goose for her. 4. Combine a note and an element with wrath for her. 5. Every language for her. 6. Bloomers are in turmoil for her. 7. Initially, ride or move. Not old? Reverse and see her. ERENDIS: Before direction and a dwarf woman, she appears. I've amended the clue 5 slightly. |
1. ARWEN.
Wane + r. |
Maybe women who waited a long time for their men?
|
ARWEN: Diminish, with direction, for a noble maiden.
2. The Nazgul are in disarray, alternatively, for her. 3. Note a wild goose for her. 4. Combine a note and an element with wrath for her. 5. Every language in turmoil for her. 6. Bloomers are in turmoil for her. 7. Initially, ride or move. Not old? Reverse and see her. ERENDIS: Before direction and a dwarf woman, she appears. |
Maybe ANCALIME for the password?

Nope. As with yours, you need to figure out more stuff before you can see the theme..... |
