I think a good fantasy idea for a culture like that would be for some typical evil lord to come up and turn everyone immortal, and their resulting struggle to live without what they honoured most. *muses* Huh...muse is at work now. Great. I'm off!

Good point. You remind me that Tolkien said fantasy is about desire. Both questions you mention reflect that.
