存亡攸关

存 = 一 + 仔 : Mnemonic symbol: a floppy disc. Kitty Cat (cu) wants to protest against the law that women have to wear skirts, so wearing jeans (仔) she dances and plays a flute (一) in the encampment's kitchen ((e)n2) and records her demonstration on a floppy disc (存) to upload it later to her livejournal.

亡 = 乚 + 亠 : Willy Walrus (w) just finished digging a grave (亡) for his dead relatives who were killed in the Arctic in the anglepod's kitchen (ang2). Exhausted, he sticks the shovel (乚) in the earth and puts his beret (亠) on it. Finally, he sets up the tombstone (mnemonic symbol for 亡).

亾 = 乚 + 人 : My mnemonic for 亡 is a tombstone, so this ancient variant gets to be a sarcophagus.

Willy Walrus (w) has to bury the Neanderthal man (人) in the anglepod's kitchen (ang2). The Neanderthal man (人) is lying in a half open sarcophagus (亾) next to Willy, and Willy uses a shovel (乚) to dig the grave.

攸 = 丨 + 亻 + 攵 : Mnemonic symbol: binoculars.

With the help of binoculars, in front of the outhouse Rosa Luxemburg sees Maud Younger trying to break into the outhouse using a sledgehammer. Rosa acts quickly and uses a dinosaur bone as a boomerang to paralyze Maud.

关 = 丷 + 天 : A mean crocodile (丷) is chasing Gitta Giraffe (gu) in front of the anthill (an1). It almost caught up, when an angel (天) appears and pushes its off button (mnemonic symbol for 关) to save Gitta Giraffe.
