At the cistern at Lantern Well, Rook Moss puts the draw board and readings kept by three connected rooms beside the nearest room fills before the far branch opens. The detail is easy to miss in a summary, but it determines whether a posted rule describes the place people actually use.
Rook Moss is the household water delegate. On this first seep visit, the work begins with a dated entry and ends with a second check from someone who did not make the first one.
The the draw board and readings kept by three connected rooms lists 38 draw turns recorded at each branch connection; the previous window lists 39. Kip Copper checked both against check-out slips compared with the handoff mark at the next station. The number is one part of a larger handoff between the office, the people who use the service and the staff expected to maintain it.
The cistern keeper counts one release. The far branch residents say their turn begins after the near room has closed its valve. Residents and workers have asked the clerk to keep their accounts beside the source count rather than turn them into a single average.
Asecond reader compares each mark with the location on the wall. The Year fourth, first seep window 3 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The draw board will show start and end marks at each branch valve.
