And why do they keep to themselves? BECAUSE NO ONE GAVE THEM A CHANCE SO THEY DON'T FEEL LIKE HELPING OUT!

If somone treats you like crap, tells you that you have to sleep in buldings that look close to falling down would you help out or become a productive memeber of society? It's the same as black people in the US, we shoved them into the poorest areas and no one would hire them after the Civial War which is why we have such a resentment to getting a 9-5 job and a gang culture that is thriving in black communities. If one city treats them like crap so they don't work and the other treats them well so they do work what's responsable for one having none-productive dark elves? If it was the dark elves Rfiten would be more like Windhelm and there would be nothing but dark elves in the thieves guild.

It's easy from the outside to say, "I'll just work hard and show the biggots yelling at me that I'm a spy and that want to beat us up that they're wrong and I am a productive member of society, that will surely make them give me better jobs and respect for my people." Remember, in the US we had to make an admendment to the constitution before people stopped desciminating against black people and people still do it to this day.
