* '''Zig Zagged''': The dwarven and elven kingdoms have recently come to a truce, and a dwarf and elf are sent on a mission together. Old habits die hard, however, and they're soon at each other's throats. Just as they're about to kill each other, they realize that their prejudices are meaningless, and resolve to try harder to understand one another, not as elves or dwarves, but as ''people.'' As time goes on, they come to realize that they simply can't stand each other's personalities.

* '''Averted''': Elves and dwarves get along nicely, but still not perfectly.

* '''Lampshaded''': A human caught in the middle of an argument between elves and dwarves observes that the old 'trees versus mines' debate is pretty played out.
