I think not.

I protect ShieldMaiden.
Victim 2: "The mammoth battering ram Grond required equally mammoth strength to wield it."
Figured it from ".e upon them."
and the reference to "legend." Legend and lore are often synonymous, so... |

Well done AD AGAIN for solving that. I know it seems stupid to ask but who is the second victim from that clue? So yeah SM is right probably but who on CC has a name related to grond? Porter Troll?
I protect Porter Troll as i cant see anyone else who is referenced by clue 2. |

| Actually, I’m not entirely sure myself who Victim 2 is. I’m guessing Gate Troll, but I dunno. |

Once again, I am forced to admit I underestimated you officers.
Shieldmaiden and Porter Troll have been protected; there was no way even I was getting past all their guards this morning. You were correct in deciphering the simple splicing of the lore (or legend, if you will) of their Lord of the Rings card game representations: one the lore of the card "Eowyn, Shieldmaiden" and the other the lore of the card "Porter Troll".
Bravo.
Now, let’s get the wheels in your head really turning... What do bankruptcy and the empress of the world have in common?
You have one day to decipher the answer. By noon tomorrow, my next target will be dead.
Time is ticking.... |

Here’s a thought out of the blue: the first thing that comes to mind when I see bankruptcy is "Chapter 11", which I believe has to do with the process of filing for bankruptcy. The only thing I can think of with regards to empress of the world is the White Witch from Narnia. 
But any thoughts on Chapter 11? Maybe it’s a book reference. |

Well, not having Narnia at hand, does LWW have a chapter 11? If so, what is it?
Chances are, it’s irrelevant, but.... |

I’m desperate...
I’m paranoid...
I’m arresting Gate Troll for murder. |
