Yup, it was unneeded, which I realized when you answered. There were two S's when there was supposed to be one.

SIL does mean flame!
 So does MAR. Question is, is there a Tolkien character called NARWEN, or is it just a Tolkien fan name?

Curse Of Morgoth?
I went back to Jim Allan's 'An Introduction To Elvish' and 'ur' was listed as heat/hot, I think.

And maybe Morwen for 8? I can't remember why she's the enemy of darkness, although her family all opposed Melkor, of course.

Grima for the bleak one. I went through lots of synonyms for bleak, and the Elvish, but forgot grim.
Shagrat could be seen as a victim of Morgoth. And Frodo was a victim of his chief servant.

E for Eol.
Hazard a guess - Osse for the seafarer leader? For some reason, the first thing I thought of when looking at the T clue was "dead end", and when I reversed that I got "end dead".

The emperor is Otho, though, isn't it, not Otto? I don't think there's a hobbit called Otto in the family trees.
Here's another one: 1. ‘Oo, those awful ...!’ Quite translated. 2. Ancient people of divine spirit? 3. Two notes assemble to laugh. 4. Finesse changes note for a resplendent thing.

No, but very close.

Yes. The verb 'to laugh.'

I tried googling the clue for #1 and I got a bunch of results for "OO, those awful orcs".

Oh, sorry ... I did wonder if I had remembered the wrong adjective, and I had.
 Still, apply the instruction in the second sentence of the clue, and hey presto! 'Oo, those awful orcs' is the title of a well-known early criticism of LOTR.
