We've drank worse.

[laughing a little]

Wait - you have? What was it?

The ale in some towns, honestly.

Can't even call it ale, at that point. Grog'd drink it anyway, though. He drank mayonnaise.

[making a face.]

I do not think I want to imagine it further.

You learn to take what you can get rather quickly... but... yes. A fine swill with notes of sludge and sweat, probably.

Could you not simply opt for water?

Water's worse sometimes. Depends on the town.

[wrinkling her nose...]

I cannot imagine how.

You don't wanna know. Ale's safer, usually.

Up to a point, I suppose.

The water's usually worse.

[ looks at like yea ]

...I feel as though I should not ask.

I doubt we truly wish to know.

[nodding slowly]

It is likely wiser.

There are worlds I think I never will fully understand.
