What just happened? Instead of what he ordered, Lea had a glass with some light brown liquid in front of him in place of the water and soup he was expecting. Did the bartender not understand him? Or was water in this weird realm always of this color? Lea shrugged, picked up the glass and took a big sip. 

As soon as the liquid touched his lips, Lea could feel the skin burning, a feeling that continued in his mouth and down his throat as the whisky made his way through his body. He started tearing up and coughing loudly, [i]what kind of poison was this???[/i] It took him a few seconds to regain his composture, or at least stop coughing. The people here definitely had some exotic customs and taste.

However, the liquid started making him feel warm from inside. Not the way his flames kept in warm, this was different. A tingly sensation that filled every fiber of his body with warmth. He had no clue what this drink was, but holy crap, it had some amazing effect on his body.

Closing his eyes, he braced himself and took another small sip. It still burned, but this time he was prepared. For some reason, his mood suddenly became a lot happier.
