I know that when an elemental manifests, it sticks around for 24 hours. But how about if the mage doesn't require it to manifest yet. If the mage just lets it sit around in it's home plane until called upon, will it owe favors to the mage indefinitely?

One of my felow gamers brought this up the other day, but it doesn't seem right to me. He conjured an elemental over six months ago, game time, and still says that the elemental owes him favors since he hasn't called upon it yet. Is this the way it actually works?
