Linge Chen's Private Reserve(心灵支配液) or Woozies is a brand of carbonated soft drinks manufactured by Opodo Corporation and distributed by the government to captive demographic groups and by the food company Agario in limited numbers to the general public. It comes in a variety of flavors such as pineapple, guava, orange and lemon. There is a rumored, secret peach flavor variant that collectors have been trying to find for years. All variants of the drink are laced with heavy doses of opium alkaloids such as morphine and codeine in addition to caffeine. This make the drink dangerously addictive and its consumption has grave effects on an individual's psyche and mental stability, hence its nickname of Woozies for the disorienting feeling one gets from drinking it.

The drink is the brainchild of chemists working in secret labs for the Xisheng Office of Contentment. In its drive to pacify and mentally dull the populations of conquered Crona, the idea to provide them with highly addictive drugs in a surreptitious manner was devised. The internment of almost seventy percent of the Cronan demographic in closed towns dubbed Bliss Camps and their dependency on government rations which include Woozies has made the strategy a resounding success. All households get a box of Woozies every week and the drink is provided free of charge in schools, medical clinics, food banks and prisons. There is a surveillance system in place to ensure the soft drink is consumed by all.

Leaked reports from visiting functionaries to the bliss camps report a sense of total complacency, sedation and despair as the inhabitants are too drugged to do much apart from shambling from one place to another in a stupor. The leaked reports state that the supply of Woozies is interrupted at random intervals to induce the population to suffer from withdrawal symptoms, to foment their loyalty to their Daxian benefactors and providers of the drinks. Food giant Agario is looking to get exclusive distribution rights of the drink in occupied Varshan and is also in talks with established retail chains to distribute it in Sarpedon.
