    The big problem with elves is when they are just taken on face value with the “they’re literally just better than you”, which happens surprisingly often. I started learning about elves from the old folklore stuff before I went into fantasy, the kind of folklore where everything supernatural is some kind of elf, including dwarves, goblins, trolls etc.

    In order to heal the divide I propose we retvrn to calling everything that isn’t human some kind of elf, that will sap it of it’s sheen and make elves more tolerable.
