36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon Twenty

Sanguine
Do you guys think Sanguine has his own line of wine? Do you think it's a merlot? He seems to me like he might be the kind of Prince to put out seasonal ales with weird flavor profiles, and people look at them and think "I should try that some time," but they never do. They just buy, you know,...
