Mnemonic


[g-] Gandalf is in [1] front of the [-an] pawn shop which he just went to. He takes out a magic 干 syringe he bought there and sticks it into the ground outside of the pawn shop. It makes all of the ground terribly 干 dry. We can see the once-healthy green grass turn to a dark 干 dry brown. It seems that Gandalf has the ability to make anything 干 dry with his magic second-hand 干 syringe!
