The Scion of Kings by tehta

Summary
Gil-galad was the scion of kings,
Of him the flighty Tehta sings.Tolkien seems to have found figuring out Gil-Galad's paternity particularly difficult. Who was Gil-Galad's father, really? Was it Fingon? Finrod? Orodreth? (Which Orodreth?) Cirdan? It is an interesting question, and one this fic completely fails to answer. It does, however, answer the question of who his mother was. Anyway. Warning for, um, authorial self-insertion.

Summary
He picks the name because it sounds good and because he can hardly use the one he's been called for the past twenty years of his life.
(And if he likes the legacy inherent in it, in the idea of having a line of ancestors he knows and can be proud of, it's not something he thinks on overmuch.)
