Well, your encrypting skills are obviously not diminished in the least!

No nonsense at all! I think you're on to something here, and the solution could perhaps be something like a geographical feature, like, say, a river or a road; in which case the 'mother' would be metaphorical (e.g. a river's source could be considered its mother), and the 'King' may be as well (not necessarily though). 'After the mountains shook' and 'the Dark One's fall' sound very much like the War of Wrath and the drowning of Beleriand, but beyond that, I'm groping in the dark. Very intriguing, this!
