Beginning notes
Greetings from the author and first of all, let me point out my non-canon deviations so that there is no confusion that I am just doing this as a Mary Sue (though there are no Mary-Sue's in the story to my knowledge).
First of all, what goes on in the Prologue is highly unlikely according to Tolkien canon. I know this. I have read the "Laws and Customs of the Eldar" in Morgoth's Ring. This is my interpretation of what I think really happened in respect to Ereinion Gil-galad's true parents. Tolkien seems to have first put him as a descendent of Finarfin, but then it is stated in The Silmarillion that Ereinion is Fingon's son. So, with a little creative licensing and plot from a friend, this is what happened.
This story also will keep the names in Quenya, until the time when the Noldor had to change their names to Sindarin. Until then, I will keep a list of characters at the bottom of each chapter for reference.
I hope you enjoy.
