Mnemonic


[m-] Mario is [2] inside the [-an] pawn shop, where he works. Hanging behind him on the wall is a beautiful tapestry that is for sale. Unfortunately, a bunch of 蠻 barbaric customers come in, wearing nothing other than loin cloths. They start throwing 虫 insects at the tapestry, trying to destroy it because it offends their 蠻 barbaric ideas. Mario jumps up on the counter and throws fireballs at the 虫 insects and the 蠻 barbaric peoples to protect the tapestry.
