*beats self over the head for excessive unhelpfulness*
Things that just fit by dumb hammering down (with the blows mostly landing on fingers):
Poros - Po is a river=flower in Italy, or could be a pun on Poe. ...Which is my best - and only - guess so far. Things that might fit with some craftier and more diligent hammering: Cair Andros Celebros Rauros Aros Ladros There are no more "-ros"es, scions or no. I'm totally lost. Aros makes very little sense cryptic-wise, so I think I can eliminate that one. Ladros and Celebros don't seem impossible to hammer to the right shape. Rauros and Cair Andros are a bit oddly-shaped if you take the -ros away. Nothing makes sense straight-clue-wise. I promise to think more about it this evening. EDIT: I just found out that there is a Rau River in Tanzania. So Rauros also fits with the same logic as Poros, but both look equally ridiculous from the straight clue perspective. EDIT2: I was thinking before that it's Elros because of this meaning of "el". I thought it somehow refers to "sacred". Well, I was wrong.
