Mnemonic


[li-] Link is in the [3] basement of the [-(e)n] infirmary where he finds a 亠 lid on the ground. He opens it up, revealing a 回 whirlpool of 冫 ice below the cement ground. It makes the basement quite chilly, causing the doctors and nurses to yell at Link. To make up for it, he gives everyone a bunch of 禾 grain stalks that they stuff into their clothes to deal with the 凜 chilly air.
