- "Imagine, Nikolai, what your father would say were he to see this day."
- ―Vladimir Lenin to Nikolai Orelov at the start of Russian Revolution[src]
Andrei Orelov was a member of the Narodnaya Volya - a group of Russian Assassins, and an organization widely seen to be terrorist in nature by the ruling elite - and the father of Nikolai Orelov. After moving to Russia, Andrei joined the Narodnaya Volya, desiring to bring down the aristocratic rule over the country. When Nikolai was old enough, his father had him inducted into the Order as he had been, despite his son's own reservations.[1]
He had died by 1917, but was mentioned in a letter to Nikolai that had been composed by Vladimir Lenin.[2]
