Mnemonic


[g-] Gandalf is in [1] front of the [-ang] chapel where he has made his own cult for the priests to join. They stand on the chapel lawn each with a 纟 silk 冂 hood with a big 㐅 x on it and march around following Gandalf. Their 纲 guiding principle is that 㐅 X's are better than crosses and that wizards are cooler than priests. That's it. That's their entire cult's belief system. Which is to say the main 纲 guiding principle is to be Gandalf's personality cult.
