[Pervinca Took]

GORGOROTH: One who loves the dark side swallows double zero, two directions and a note here?
ORODRUIN: Crooked cross. Destruction. And here we are.
RULING RING: Circle that draws lines?
TINUVIEL: Charged component in great turmoil for her. (Bested by her)
H: Two articles, two liquids, a note and a pronoun. Mix them up to reveal them.
ANNATAR: In him, a palindrome girl meets a sailor.
UDUN: See the back of the article here, mon ami.
RODNOR: He’d be a palindrome, but a note becomes a point. (His bane)

TAR-CALION: Thank you, trumpet, for perplexing him! (Deceived him)
HUAN: He really is almost human! (Bested him)
E: Mix female-born herb for him.

CELEBRIMBOR: Beleg returns, with noted change and edge. Denethor’s little son completes him. (Had him executed)
RINGLORD: Call, master, and see him.
ULAIRI: Den inside undisclosed igloos? Yes, initially. There they are!
EYE: This time, a glaring palindrome!
LUGBURZ: Here’s a well-directed start. A Shakespearean snag is mirrored. And HMNB Devonport is sprinkled around.

For some reason - and I have no idea why - the barracks at HMNB Devonport have the nickname GUZ. I became aware of a place/thing called GUZ when I read a Charles Causley poem called 'Song of the Dying Gunner,' which has a line that goes 'Farewell Aggie Weston, the barracks at Guz.'

'To sleep, perchance to dream - ay, there's the RUB.' ('Mirror' it).

And 'well-directed start' tells you to put a direction, (L, as it happens), at the beginning.

...

Two to go!
