LINDON.

'A little later' means it's the 'I' that counts.

'LINE' shortened, plus DON.

And Lindon has a shoreline.
Perfect in every particular.

And there it is. According to my map-matching, all of these places lie on the direct line from Menegroth to Caras Galadhon (extended out in both directions to the farthest borders of Doriath and Lorien, though I forget whether that's actually relevant).

D? -- A dull pub between the rivers.
OSSIRIAND - I say: Oh sir! I hand this damp place (to you).
REGION - An area, with trees.
LINDON - A little later, the shortened line of Italian nobles stands on the shore.
A? -- By a slightly longer name, would still smell as sweet, and probably of holly.
T? -- Big, purple, fancy glove - no, sorry, I misread, it's just a river.
H? -- A cry of greeting over most of a thousand kilos of rabbits, just outside the door.
THOUSAND CAVES - You send, formally and pretty much, Latin cautions underground.
O? -- A division without us? Normally after a short monster where the capital stands.
LHUN - Attila in bad French runs towards a haven.
OLD FOREST - I am aged, I am off to bed, I am just west of here.
RATHLORIEL - In anger and the voice of the laws of Hell, name me a second time after the battle.
I? -- Hell, Mike reversed into a pit and found the leader a step in.
ESTOLAD - He stole ads? You'd never hear it once in the camp.
NELDORETH - A scrambled article, a stick, and a singular lens got turned around in the woods.


Six clues to go.
