The premise pulled me in and it very much delivered what it suggested. The declaration of Maedhros as High King gave me chills, and the writing was very strong throughout, in a very fitting voice. I'll be on the lookout for more of this fic.

(Most of all, though, even speaking as someone who ships Maedhros/Fingon, I was delighted that you decided to include a fiancée for Maedhros - I could go on and on forever about the lack of women in Tolkien's canon, and that phrasing in HoMe was an opportunity to include an OFC that I hadn't noticed yet, so it took me by surprise - but very positive surprise. I like her already and hope to read more about her as well!)
