1. Discombobulated foe ran from him who started it all.
2. Tranquility inside of greeting? Return it for a founder's son
3. Confused country leads to a hero's mother.
4. Alike, with double path for 1's creations.
5. Attenuated register (in reverse) for the King.
6. Demise with two directions? It's all jumbled for a wise conversationalist.
7. Germanium? Predatory cat? A stockade was here.
8. Electronic glower and a saint were at the harbor.
Hope you enjoy it.
