Part 2/10:
Maedros was born in the land of Valinor during the Age of the Trees, between the years 1190 and 1260. As the son of Fëanor and Nerdanel, he had five brothers: Maglor, Caranthir, Curufin, Amrod, and Amras. Maedros was distinguished by his impressive height and fiery red hair, traits inherited from his mother. His early years were marred by the growing discord between his father and his uncle Fingolfin, leading to the eventual banishment of Fëanor from Tirion.
