And what does that lead to for 10A Petrified mother of twelve (5), which, if SHARE is correct, is N?O?A . Thank you for any help anyone can offer.

Yes, it's NIOBE from the Iliad, mother of twelve children. Thank you for that. But what then is the answer to 8D Shaw's investment (5) S?E?E . And what is the logic of the answer to 8D?

invest means besiege (of castles etc); no doubt someone will spot where Shaw comes into this
