Little Golden Age by Agelast
Fanwork Notes
In The Silmarillion, Fingon is the father of Gil-galad, and it's great because then there's an uninterrupted lineage of High Kings of the Noldor with devilishly bad luck. But, of course, where there's a son, there's got to be a wife, somewhere. (She doesn't even get a name, alas.) Now, when Fingon's wife does appear in fics, she's basically the Ann Veal of elvish ladies ("Her?" the reader sighs, casting longing looks Fingon and Maedhros. Could they not just make out or declare their abiding affection for each other --) But I, personally, do not see why this should be. I've tried to make her interesting. Perhaps Gil-galad survived so long because he had a sensible mother. Stranger things have happened. Especially in Middle-earth.
