Mnemonic


[g-] Gandalf is in the [3] basement of the [-(e)ng] English manor, bored. He goes up to one of the 木 trees next to the dusty statues and touches his staff to the 一 ground before it, making a 日 sun emerge from the ground, giving the 木 tree energy. The 木 tree sprouts a couple of small 梗 stems that Gandalf then turns into miniature walking brooms that proceed to sweep up the dust and old 梗 stems from the ground.
