Oi Omae! I've tasted this Blood Dragon Swill. And I won't stand for this! You managed to ruin perfectly good Sake somehow and I'm not going to allow some Filth go around calling themselves the Sake Shogunate if they lack the taste needed to enjoy actual Sake... *A sip is heard* Ahh... Now this is Sake done right. If I see you parading yourself around OUR House, you will not be seeing the lovely blue of our systems. But the blackness of Prison ship!
