I got to Riften and find Two nords terrorizing a Dark Elf I've seen it before but I didn't really wonder why. My character is a Dark Elf so I was wondering why, I tracked one of them down and asked them why they hate them. They just cursed them.... Anyone tell me why??

Windhelm I mean.

There's a widespread Nord predudice against all elves, due to a combination of the Great War, the Thalmor and Nord culture.

Problem is that Dunmer are not with the Thalmor and the Elves who are, the Altmeri, are treated as more or less equals by the Nords.
