You set up an interesting scenario in response to the prompt. This elf is filled with resentment and envy. The goal he sets for himself is out of his reach, but he is too proud to see that. The detail about getting caught in the elevator (you spell caught incorrectly in the piece--you might want to correct that) gives the story a sense of originality.
