Child King's Lullabye

Gil-galad became King far younger than any other Elf, and during unimaginably difficult times. How did he handle the pressure and responsibility? How did war and despair and the loss of his childhood shape him? How did the child with a too-large crown become the longest reigning High King of the Noldor? And what did he lose along the way?
