Rating:NC-17
Pairing:Elladan/Elrohir/Elphir (Imrahil’s eldest son), Elphir/OMC
Warnings: Incest
Betas:Capella and Thevina.  Thanks to both of you! Also much gratitude to Malinornë for her knowledgeable and patient help with Sindarin.

Request: Wherein Princes meet after the Ring War and together explore the differences between elves and men.  Elladan and/or Elladan/Elrohir gain insight and tap into his/their human heritage and Elphir gains insight and taps into his elvish heritage.
Please make both equally confident.  Not too angsty and not overly fluffy (no long term love match required).  Just a nice interlude of mutual self‑discovery.  Humor a plus, but not pure crack!fic.  Please include Miruvor, a libation of Dol Amroth, and rain.
Use the following Shakespearean couplet as your guide:        
"And since you know you cannot see yourself,
So well as by reflection, I, your glass,
Will modestly discover to yourself,
That of yourself which you yet know not of."
– Wm. Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

Summary: Prince Imrahil's son Elphir visits the decaying town of Edhellond to learn the meaning of an oracle and to indulge his secret desires.  He meets Elrond's twin sons who have much to teach him about the ways of elves and men.
