[g-] Gandalf is in [1] front of the [-ong] temple where he is 恭 respectfully helping the monks harvest 共 seaweed from a pond next to the rock garden. He 恭 respectfully casts a spell with his staff that creates a special pump that they use to slowly drain the pond. Then they harvest the 共 seaweed and 恭 respectfully lay it out on the rock garden rocks to dry. Gandalf then sits down and 恭 respectfully smokes his pipe instead of eating any of the tasty looking 共 seaweed.
