16 D. Amplify group of flowers assigned to a cultivated acreage (10)
?????r?ce?e
22 D. Mouth opening, so use roughly like a salute, for example (7)
????o?a

The preamble says that many clues contain one word which must have a letter removed, and those remaining rearranged to form a new word before solving. Thanks for any heelp

I'm just going to have my first stare at the grid - it's unlikely that anything will jump out at me but I'll let you know if it does.
I haven't rounded up the discarded letters, so have only half of the Across and Down messages/phrases/comments.
I have the two phrases, which are a way of telling who the character is - but am useless at word searches
Question Author
Boreas, do you mind if I ask if the second (Down) phrase ends 'whisk'? If so, I'll keep puzzling - if not, I'll have another look at my scribbles!
I think the reference in the preamble to 'wandering in the grid' means it's not going to be a totally simple (diagonal, upwards etc) wordsearch.
But I have just found him!
yes, the last word is whisk
Question Author
Thanks - and well done!
well, I still can't get 'another title'
Question Author
Boreas - Snap, neither can I! I'll keep working on it and let you know if anything springs to mind.
Have you got everything else?
Question Author
I haven't got the full wording of either of the phrases, but have a full grid, know what the five unaffected answers are, have done the highlighting.
and you know how those five answers need to be treated then?
I have just realised that there are a couple of other people in my house that I vaguely recognise. They seem to want to talk to me, so I will have to get back on the case tomorrow.
Question Author
Boreas - yes, I knew what to do with the five answers. I have a hunch for the 'other title', but will have to reason it out.
Hi Never,

There doesn't seem to be another title in the same format as the other five.
Do you think it might be something not by our 'individual'?
Question Author
Boreas, there IS another title by the individual - it is not always given as such, but I suddenly remembered it from my schooldays. Let me know if another little hint would help you finish this off altogether - I heaved a huge sigh of relief when I got there.
All I can think of is the longer/full title of the Danish thingy.
Am I warm?
Question Author
You're hot - not warm! And to confirm your thinking, try it out with the actual title of the crossword.
Is it something to do with 'Be'?
. . . and pencils?
Question Author
No, it's much simpler than that! The title has 'office' - this equates with the first half of the place you mentioned (in the full title of the title) and 'issue' equals the second half of that word.
I hope this is of some help.
