I think the best answer depends on a lot of things.  If the characters
are Evil, this is certainly in their line of work, and I'd go trucking
off to find elves at once (certainly adds a bit of spice to the adventure).
Good characters (*really* Good characters) would be horribly appalled by
the situation, and hide in a closet until death.  (Doing otherwise would
risk intervention by the Good deities, too (subtle intervention))
Neutrals, well, that would depend on the balance of things at the time,
but it isn't really a Neutral kind of thing to do.  But then again, in
some worlds, Elves and Dwarves *really* hate each other, so a Neutral
character in this situation might enlist the help of more belligerant
Dwarves (who usually are underdogs).

External to the role playing, it depends on how much effort you have put
into these characters (as someone else pointed out), and whether or not
you think you could have fun playing this role.  If so, then *go for it*.
If not, bag it and try again.
