Fear! Fire! Foes! Awake!
I can't really take credit for this though. Most of the heavy lifting had been done.

Although I kind of like Mugwump's alternative ... "Warm! Fire! Thumbs! Awake!"  Well, heavy lifter or not, Lalaith, you get the credit for finding the answer, so the thread is yours.

This is probably too easy for you clever people. Sorry.
One is black and nine are white, Unloved as she that gives us sight Furtive in darkness, your secrets we spied Cursed and remembered, unfinished we hide.

That will teach me to try to set riddles late at night.
1. Preposterously easy 2. Wrong Nine are black and one is white is how that first line should have gone....
