Honestly, if i were given the choice between being an Elf and being a human, i would choose human. Here's why:

Compared to Elves, humans don't put big value on appearances. They can see the beauty in simple things, whereas the elves, living in a world where beauty is just thrown out there randomly, can't really apreciate it when something truly beautiful happens.

Secondly, humans arent afraid to fight-really fight- for what they believe in. The elves talk about all the wars that humans make for themselves, meanwhile the council is just lounging around and doing nothing while the Neverseen reak havoc. At least humans are willing to get their hands dirty to protect what they love.

I get the whole guilt thing, and how it's supposed to keep elves from making bad desicions, but I don't think it's real. If it was, the Neverseen wouldn't exist. I think it's just an excuse to be lazy and not fix their problems.

I also think that the elves are spoiled. They live in a perfect world, where everything is done for them. They have bank accounts set up for them filled with all the money they could want or need. Thus, they don't have to work or learn about life to live. They are ignorant of the strife that makes good people.

Yes, humans are often pleagued by poverty and strife, but if you look throughout history, they always get over it and come out stronger, smarter and wiser. Elves don't have to live through anything, therefore, they can't grow.

That's just the beginning of my problems with the Elvin species.
