Pervinca Took is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
JEWELLED HILT: Belongs to a thing sounding like a seabird’s carpus. (On Orcrist)
2. Whatever the danger, one man desired this.
3. It sounds like a Scottish circle.
4. Note and depend in confusion, for a thing allowed to fall.
5. Aragorn calls for them, we hear, without direction.
ISILDUR'S BANE: A Numenorean’s centaur? (The One Ring)
7. In the present, Macbeth, one might say, changes direction for it.
8. An Anglo-Saxon spear driven into lacework will produce these.

That's the one! (Or should I say the One?)

There was no straight clue, but I think that's defensible on this occasion.

Galadriel, NOW is indeed the right starting element for 7. Macbeth has alternative names, or should I say titles?
