"Where I'm from, the idea of throwing around fundamental forces at will is commonplace. Something like this little light in the dark here should be simple enough that a child can create it, but here in this world, even the educated seem to struggle. It's stunning, really."

He isn't insulting her. The people of this world and their ways amaze him with how complicated they must make everything to accomplish something so elementary.
