Mnemonic

Your mouth contains a scroll, which you pull out and look at. On the scroll is a map, showing the range of the sphere of your mouth.

Hints

On the map, there is a circle drawn around your mouth showing what range your mouth exists in. Thankfully, your tongue and teeth are within that sphere.

Mnemonic

Looking at the range of your mouth on the map, you notice a tiny samurai marked near your molars. It is Ken (けん) the samurai.

Hints

Everything else on the map was accurate, so you take a close look in the mirror, and there he is: a tiny Ken the samurai, protecting the range that is your mouth. He gives you a small nod and goes back to his post.
