Awake memories of one who raised Cain accepting fine (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

evoke

'awake memories' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'one who raised cain accepting fine' is the wordplay.
'one who raised cain' becomes 'eve' (I've seen this in another clue).
'accepting' means one lot of letters goes inside another (inserted letters are accepted).
'fine' becomes 'ok' (synonyms).
'eve' placed around 'ok' is 'EVOKE'.

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for evoke that I've seen before include "Elicit (a response)" , "Prompt" , "Call forth (a response)" , "Rekindle" , "Induce" .)
