Meaning Mnemonic

Dirt makes it easy to identify your location. If you know that, you can go from place to place.

Hints

Imagine looking at the dirt. It's a distinct color and texture, and you're able to identify your location just from that alone.

Reading Mnemonic

Knowing your location from dirt is quite a feat! Who taught you that? It was Jourm (じょう), the big local farmhand. Despite being a bit weird, he does really know his dirt and can tell you the place from which any dirt came.

Hints

Remember Jourm? He's our local farmhand who only has nine toes (from the 上 mnemonic). Imagine that guy explaining to you how to know your location from dirt. He may be a bit clumsy, but the man really does know his dirt.
