OK. I was trying to remove the word "end" from a phrase in elvish I couldn't find for something like the Flight of the Noldor before I thought of stairs. So let's take a trip to Moria and try
The Endless Stair. I suppose that kind of stair would stop at the top OR bottom, but not both.

That's the case of stairs I wanted.

That's good, 'cos I don't know the ablative form.
 Try this one: Tedious fellow mixes with humanity here.

Good try, and on the right lines, but no.

Hint: My clue didn't include an article, and I usually account for every single letter (Lotho Sackville-Baggins was an exception, because the "Sackville-Baggins" was just kind of referred to, with Lotho being the main part of the clue).
You might also want to rethink the "humanity" part of the clue.

Tedious fellow mixes with humanity here.
Please solve this! Amon Ereb was very close, but not the answer.
BORE was correct for tedious fellow (without the a that Squatter added), but rethink the 'humanity' part - what other things can be humanities? Think education ....
