Wrong about the D clue. It's cryptic, and composed of two elements (as in parts - not chemical ones).

Remember that the constraining and fettering is sometimes/often metaphorical. And think of the final, (well, excluding Dagor Dagoraths and stuff) resting place of the Arkenstone.

Pairs are correct, but 'Cormacolindor' means 'Ringbearers,' and is not the first answer.

'No-one' is paired with someone who fits, but perhaps not 'screamingly' so.

I tried all kinds of words/synonyms to make a password that did what Huey's did, and 'Constrainees And Fetterers' was literally the only such phrase I could make possible answers work with.
