It should be a fairly easy and painless step to take just to protect yourself.
Hmm, hadn't thought of this issue. I'm really not sure who I would ask about such a thing. I mean this particular picture is taken from the movies, but the idea/city itself is Tolkien's...

A quick question for everyone else - what exactly do you mean by 'fuse'?
Hmmmm, not sure. Maybe the publisher or the film studio. I'm sure it wouldn't take much in the way of research to figure it out. But best of luck in any case. I really can't wait to see what you come up with. I'm so excited for you!!! I haven't read any of the books, but I've seen all of the LOTR movies and love, love, love them.
