Calembel is the name of

A) A valley.
B) A town.

Might? Hello?

Since we're long past the 10-day limit, and since I know my answer was right, I'm going to continue.

Androth was the name of:

A) A Wise-woman of the House of Bëor.
B) A pass between the South Downs and the Barrow Downs.
C) The caves in the hills of Mithrim.

A) A Wise-woman of the House of Bëor is Andreth
B) A pass between the South Downs and the Barrow Downs is Andrath
D) An outlaw is Andróg

Therefore, C) must be the right answer :)

Nice deductive work, Sherlock! :)
