I know every water level for the past eighty years. Your name, though, once more?

I have eighty years of water levels memorized, but I can't remember the name of someone I met just yesterday. The water never changes. People do.

HapirThen what's my name?
NakhtiFourteen and a half. Ah, wait, that's last year's water mark.
SenebkaNumbers are good, being honest. Only, don't read them ahead of the oracle.
NakhtiNumbers don't get ahead. They just arrive first.

Left elsewhere

Elder, what was last year's water mark, in cubits? Ah, right, I memorized it myself.

Four is one less than yesterday. Ah, maybe I shouldn't have said that.

At the knee, that's half a pace per second. I'll time it for you. Sorry, what was your name again?
