GANDALF REACHES HOBBITON!
My compliments, sir Grondy!
Thanks Rafael, but it was a good puzzle and Loss'es double B was the clincher for me, after that everything just seemed to fall into place.
So try:
'_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _' (seven words of 3, 5, 3, 5, 2, 3, and 5 letters)
So try:
'_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _' (seven words of 3, 5, 3, 5, 2, 3, and 5 letters)
Congrats Grondy

Yes, we have two Os for Mellon; but only one L for Rafael; and two As for Ereinion.
So now it reads:
'O L _ / _ O _ _ _ / A _ _ / _ A _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _'
Hooray, no wrong guesses.

Sorry,

Old words and names in the shire?
Yes Maydmarion, 
the title of Merry's treatise "showing special interest in discovering the kinship with the language of the Rohirrim of such 'shire-words' as mathom and old elements in place names." - from the Prologue to LotR.
So, It is now Maydmarion's turn to present us with a new puzzle.

I step in, trying: Clout of Ungoliant! Isn't that quite a blow! 
Ugoliant's bite was worse than her bash. 
So I think that first T should be a D.
The phrase refers to her aura of darkness in which she could envelop herself in to hide.
If I'm correct Rafael, you may do the next one in my place.
