I am twice as old as three times the age of the Sphinx of Gazia, Agamamnus, divided by one-ninth the age of the Sphinx of Canus, Igon, who left this world twenty-six years ago. What then is my age?
My age=2*((3*(Agamamnus))/((Igon)/9))
The problem is that we don't know how old Igon was when Igon left the world. Igon could have been 1 or 9999 or any age. We don't know if the age count kept going after he left this world. You hear all the time about today being so-and-so celebrity's 99th birthday...if they were still alive. What is the year at the time of the riddle (easy to find out)? What year was it when Igon was born? Does the game state it elsewhere? Is the riddle solvable with just the information contained in the riddle? What is the age of Agamamnus?
For a little context, keep in mind I'm reading the Codex Scientia cover to cover before even starting the game.
