The first race, we'll call them Glurphs, can not ever tell a lie, and the second race, we'll call them Rafas, can't seem to ever tell the truth. Being a stranger to this land you are not familiar with the ways of the people there and when you meet a group of three citizens you ask them which race they belong to.
