Meaning

Primary

Fear

Mnemonic

A saw cuts into your heart and you are filled with fear. Well, you were filled with fear before the saw reached your heart too, but now that the saw is cutting into your heart, you’re feeling more fear than ever.

Hints

Try and imagine this saw slicing into your heart. Are you filled with fear? You should be.

Mnemonic

Even more so than your fear of dying, you are filled with the fear that you’ll never get to vacation in きょうと. You always wanted to take a trip to きょうと, but if you die from this saw wound to the heart, you’ll never get the chance to go.

Hints

I fear you’ll never make it to きょうと. Think of きょうと and how you long for it as you slowly die from that saw wound to the heart.
