Pick Apart Answers & Scavenge for Truth

"As I said, I've no reason to lie–"

"Have you ever set foot in Grebeil?" Rizz cut her off again with a shrewd stare. "Or have you only heard stories?"

That verbal jab left Rizz fumbling to one knee instead of getting back to his feet. He pressed a hand over his fast-beating heart. 

"That… level of ignorance, only strengthens my argument." 

"Ignorant? You would call me ignorant–"

"I'm calling all of Kazaal ignorant. All of the Kumoz elves as a people. You're ignorant as fuck!" 

Disappointment flowed from Rizz's eyes and cascaded down his face.
