Mnemonic

You use a bamboo saw to cut down trees to construct and build a building. The bamboo saw was crafted by a master bamboosmith, and cuts through trees with ease so you can quickly construct this new building.

Imagine yourself working the bamboo saw. It's made of bamboo, but its sharp edge glistens with a mysterious aura as you slice through tree after tree. Feel how unnaturally easy it is to cut down piles of logs to build with.

Mnemonic

As you construct and build this building, you hear a strange cheeping noise. Suddenly a chick (ちく) pops out of one of the logs you are building with. Then another, and another. You're surrounded by chicks! Is this because you used the magical(?) bamboo saw??

Imagine trying to construct the rest of this building covered in baby chicks. They're very cute, but this is dangerous! You have to build very carefully, so you don't accidentally hurt any of them.
