My Captain and My King - Sons of Feanor: B10: Maedhros as a leader

Warnings: N/A
Characters: An OC and Maedhros
Pairings: N/A
Summary: A biased account of the leadership qualities of Maedhros written by a die-hard supporter. Some might call this piece the epitome of the literary form of the unreliable narrator. Perhaps it is not. This is one follower's reflections upon Maedhros, but The Silmarillion is filled with events in the life of Maedhros. One may draw their own conclusions, but one would do well to remember that history is written by the victors.
