Mnemonic

The king can see the present time for what it really is. The future isn't important. The past isn't important. The present is where it's at.

Hints

People are constantly asking the king to do things for them and solve their problems. But the king can see exactly what needs to be done at the present time, and what can wait until tomorrow.

Mnemonic

At the present time the king is Genji (げん). The time has finally come for him to get serious, and as they say, there's no time like the present.
