are hylians elves

Hylians are a race of humanoids who live in the kingdom of Hyrule in the video game series "The Legend of Zelda." They are not considered elves in the traditional sense, but they do share some similarities with elves. Hylians are known for their long lifespans, magical abilities, and their love of nature. However, unlike elves, Hylians do not possess pointed ears and are not known for their expert craftsmanship.
