It absorbs the life-force of those who drink it. It waits patiently, but opportunities are fleeting—it tastes so bad that it gets spat out immediately. It causes sickness and birth. Its reward is death. It is the blackest drink in the universe. It is poison, pure poison. It can bring death to a man. It brings him a drink-drunkness that he never knows, that he never recovers from. It is the most terrible and vile thing in the whole universe. The greatest danger and the most common punishment, to anybody who drinks it os death itself and the lingering effects of that death. I am not joking.
