"I was hardly complaining about the lack of alcohol," he then assured Nuada, "but about the lack of quality alcohol. The machines have given me several different variants on alcohol now, none of which meeting my standards." He paused, raised his eyebrows. "Some of them were quite... surprising." He did not think they were from Earth, truly, and it was not that surprising, in a place like this one.
