Mnemonic


[y-] Yoshi is in the [3] basement of the [-ong] temple with the other monks. At the center of the basement, on the rock ground, is a relic that 丶 drops 水 water every couple of seconds. Yoshi and the monks sit around the relic and 詠 chant 言 words. It seems to be some sort of monk 詠 chanting ritual. The 言 words of 詠 chant float around the basement, moving in rhythm to the sound the 丶 drops of 水 water make.
