Summary
“The Maedhros who stands before his son is not one thing but many. He is a struck-down statue. He is a fading demon. He is a sword in a nuclear war. He is historical debris. He is the sum of a nation’s ruin. He is the first sunset of the Empire’s apocalypse. He is Elrond’s beloved Baba, who would find him under every starless sky. Archives will dissect him. Historians will redeem him. Writers will swallow him whole.”
In 1937, notorious Indian revolutionary Maedhros Fëanorian and his brother Maglor, take in a British colonial officer's twin sons and raise them to adulthood. Decades later, Elrond Peredhel, trying to leave a family tragedy behind in England, returns to India during a time of political turbulence and finds that everything, from the national landscape to his firebrand father, the ineffable Comrade Maedhros, has changed. Chapter 19: Epilogue, Afterword and 'Alternate' Ending.

I must admit I have been craven. I have put off bookmarking this fic for more than 6 months because I'll want to cry and scream and cackle like a madman if I try to elaborate the emotions brought to me by this work. I think its also taught me to introspect on my own intergenerational trauma. How do I do such a work justice in description?

Summary
After twelve years of marriage, Prince Maegor and his wife Ceryse Hightower have at long-last conceived a child!
The realm rejoices... or would be, if Aegon the Conqueror were not on his funeral bier and his heir, Aenys, was not such an indecisive man-child.
Ceryse is thrilled... or would be, if someone could tell her what is going on, where she is, and why her husband keeps launching into villainous monologues.

Hard to believe that Maegor the cruel could be so well characterised. Though that’s not really who he is here.
