I think Kalika fulfills Senri's criteria at least informally, as he's able to remember events dating back to the Fifth Umbral Calamity.

Kalika: I can tell you only of legends passed down through generations. Of biting frost that turned seas to ice, which drove the Speaker's makers to go forth in search of a haven where light shone bright. Those who came long after found Aloalo, where life had weathered the ancient rime. At the island's heart was the Speaker, its jewel flawless and radiant.

Matsya: Just how old are you, Kalika? You speak of eras so ancient that they are as myth to us.

Kalika: Your guess is as good as mine, Master Matsya! I remember well when the island was bustling and vibrant, its inhabitants dedicated to esoteric equations and other cultural pursuits. Some even attempted to unravel the mysteries of the Speaker and its jewel.

I was born in the great shrine, this much I know. When the people found me, I spoke to them in their own tongue─they were beside themselves in disbelief! Thus was I deemed the Speaker's servant.
