Noah (afterlife, reincarnation, whatever you fancy) asks God for some help with a new Ark.
Noah: I'd like it to be much bigger this time, bigger than a village.
God: I'll arrange it for you.
Noah: Thank you. I'd like it to have several decks, like the storeys of a building.
God: That isn't a problem. Consider it done.
Noah: Thanks, that's great! One last thing...I'd like each deck partitioned into watertight compartments and I'd like most of them flooded with water, but for the Ark to still float.
God: That wouldn't usually be possible, Noah, but I'll make it work for you.
Noah: Wonderful!
God: It is done. I am curious, though. Do you intend to carry a sample of the animals of the seas this time, rather than the land?
Noah: Not really. Just carp. Different types of carp on each storey. There are lots of different types of carp.
And that is why God built Noah a multi-storey carp ark.
