Exactly! And even if they weren't invincible, why not try out all sorts of safer stuff (skydiving's pretty safe, from what I've heard, for example)? I really can't think of any elf doing something like that..
If these guys are IMMORTAL, you could quite reasonably expect it to be the opposite: like 100 years is an eyeblink to us so why should we give a damn about something that happened last week?
Yeah, that too; why would you waste so much of your time on grudges and stuff? You'd think they'd leave it alone after a while...
For the pregnancy, I'm not convinced it was that long in Elain's case (and a cleft palate develops early in the pregnancy, and thus has nothing to do with overlong ones anyway), but in Katrina's... yeah, that's two months past the longest on record. I see that the placenta begins to fail after the ususal term of the pregnancy, so Ismira should most probably have died.
Well why would you? The guy has squandered every other chance he's had.
Yeah, he genuinely has, and it's kind of a pity to see.
