Ah - and I even got one letter closer by using NEE for north-east-east plus Orion and taking 'shine above' just to be what Starlight does ... but that still only got me as far as EREINOON.

Taking "starry warrier" as the straight clue, my first thought was Orion and my second was Menelmacar. No idea how that can fit though, and I'm too tired to try and figure it our from the cryptic side.

You need a third thought.

My second thought was Menelvagor (sp?) but the v and the g were too problematic.
Starry warrior, taking direction, distorted shine above. Maybe Telumehtar - because I guess 'lume' means shine in some person and declension, and ... maybe all of the letters minus the R might mean shine or shine above in Elvish?

It is Menelvagor and the why isn't that tricksy.

Hang on, there's GLEAM in there. I spent quite a while trying to get from GLEAM to MAGLOR on this one, too. So - what letters are left?
NEVOR - oooooohhh - N(orth) plus OVER for above. I did look for overs and gleams, but clearly didn't look hard enough in Menelvagor.

Next one, then.
He mingles twilight with doom, initially.
