Elf owl don't care ... elf owl don't give a shit.
Its weird that the name is Elf in English. Every variation of the owl in Spanish is duende or enano. Obviously in Hispanic folklore we didn't have have dwarves and elves the same way Germanic cultures did, but both duende and enano translate to dwarf.
