This group is opposed by a more liberal group who believe the best method is to increase the number of half-elves, which they believe increases the amount of elf blood (higher fertility rate), and within a few years they can start breeding the human blood out by reducing the percentage of human blood by increasing the amount of pure elves who have children with half elves. This group draws on a lot of husbandry ideas, and tend to sound like they are refering to cattle when talking of half elves (so they aren't entirely accepting).As to wild and wood elves, the subraces were never large and the die off, though they weren't hit as hard, really hurt their number. Largely they don't represent a significant enough portion of the population to really affect any change on the system. As such, they saw this all as a good reason to withdraw even further. Many "city" elves don't even know if the subraces still exist.</blockquote>
