The Belly of the Orochi was the most popular sake house in Broken Wave City, well known for its decent selection of drink and food for reasonable prices. It's owner, Masa, was a particularily blunt and straightforward heimin. The place was also well known for its bunraku puppet theatre, which offered sardonic and bawdy takes on well-known stories from the Empire. An especially popular performance was the retelling of a story about the original Gozoku conspiracy.
