I wonder if, contra to that, an immortal race might find mortal life to be very precious? Vampires, hey I get it, they eat humans, of course they're gonna look down on their prey.

The natural world is filled with ephemeral phenomena, night elves are supposed to like plants and animals and stuff - they are born and die too. Even a mountain is worn down by a river or a glacier and the immortal elves probably watched and maybe even midwifed that. Perhaps they get frustrated with mortal races re-learning the same lessons over and over but I don't think they'd find humanity as underneath their concern or empathy. Or maybe they do cause mortal races are a little more bratty than growing a grove and bringing in a lil ecosystem of attendant animals and funguses.

But then again... I dunno, I like it when people push back even if just a little even in nursing. It's when they're most compliant that things tend to get dire, it's nice when they have spunk or a spark or something that tells them to break the rules and be independent. There's probably some night elves like that.

It's a shame how they've basically been isolationist as a society for like 10k years so, that doesnt bring understanding especially when you care about nature and then you see the "lesser" people just wrecking nature. Seems like the fascism was pre-destined when you don't even try to communicate.

This is a flaw in a lot of long lived species in fantasy and sci-fi though. thinking-about-it I guess it would be like watching over an ant-den or something, but like if you could talk to the ants and see their art and culture in a deeper way than just looking at them through a glass, you wouldnt consider them to be "just" ants anymore.
