Once there are ships that can take them to the Undying Lands, what is the motivation for the Elves to stay in a war-torn, darkened land full of Men and Orcs and other undesirable creatures? We know that Elves could become wraiths if they stayed in Middle Earth, so something would have to be of value to them enough to outweigh that risk. Their purpose as the Firstborn was to show Men the way and prepare Middle Earth for them, but many of them are not doing that so what then are they doing.
What's keeping them there?
Sailing into the West seems like an all around better deal for them and I can't find any discussion of a motive to stay.
