Of course they did all those things (farming, washing, ironing etc.), but they probably did it in a way that would make those tasks seem glorious and neccessary (and they were, neccessary at least).
Elves probably did have classes like everyone else, maybe even like those in Hindu societies.
One question: Could those classes be based on beauty instead of birth? It would seem like an Elvish thing to do [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]. Of course, that's only if those classes exsited at all...
I don't think they would have allowed a 'commoner' Elf to become a leader. That would almost seem like democracy and I just can't imagine Elves in a democracy... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
