High fantasy novels often deal with long-lived people: immortal elves. Fantasy authors have come up with different ways for elves to occupy their time. Off the top of my head:
- master crafts (e.g. build guitars for 100 years)
- reminisce (sink so deep into memory that you lose track of passing days)
- count seasons instead of days or weeks ("I'll see you 4 summers from now" instead of "I'll see you tomorrow")
