A pool and roman statues. Also, more dolphins. This place is starting to seem like it's not particularly thematically coherent. A staircase leads down to the ground level, but there doesn't seem to be anything of note out here at the moment.

Could it be...the screams of the damned who have become victims of the Hound? Is this the sound of the torment eternal they must endure, trapped forever in this hellish cetacean manor?

[ Bad sounds. Dislike!!!

She'll do a search around the bases of the statues, putting a little extra effort into not knocking anything over, since apparently dolphin statuary likes to shatter with very little provocation.

Is there... anything red.... pink? Orange maybe? ]

It's all just a bunch of dirt and poorly textured cobblestone.

[ ...Damn.

Back inside it is, then. The door didn't lock behind her or anything cursed like that, right, ]

It did not!

[ as she's leaving dia is opening the door up to meet her, showing her a trading card. ]

What do you think of this?

—Oh! [ leaning in to study it; squinting a bit ]

It's uncomfortably distorted, but... Are you thinking it might be our red?

I haven't been able to find anything of interest out here, yet—just that cursèd sound.

It isn't impossible, is it? If there isn't anything left to see here, then maybe it would be good to go back...?

I was about to go back myself, yes.

As far as the red, it's mostly the fact that it's not liquid that makes me unsure. I suppose we could try out adding it to the green, like Eirene did with her pear...

Mm. It would be able to be dissolved, wouldn't it?

Most likely. It would be a gamble, to be sure.

Then ...

[ ....Oh okay I guess we're back. ]

Those cries from before—it seems they're our last clue to the source of the conflict.

[ Can we GODS OF FRIVOLOITY indeed follow the screams of the damned? ]

Ah—hm...

[ yes where is the party ]

Is it the pool, maybe?

Do pools scream?

I don't put it past this house's pool.

Maybe - ... it should be somewhere near there, shouldn't it?

I already did an initial search—before you came out here to meet me, that is, Aradia.

But perhaps...

[ She takes out her laser master laser taser.

What happens if she shines the light beam into the water? ]

You shine the laser into the pool! It makes the water glow a bit red due to the principles of refraction, which I'm sure have been explained to you in detail.

Also, you can see the bottom of the pool. It's just like, white tile.

The barking gets louder.

What if we all shine our lasers onto the water?

[ or at least, she's going to do that. ]

Oh, I had wondered... that's a wonderful idea, isn't it?

[ she'll give it a shot too. ]

WITH YOUR POWERS COMBINED, I AM

A beautiful dolphin light show, featuring a wondrous trip through the seas. How entrancing! How magical! It's like Fantasia, but it's a light show and it's dolphins and the music is all produced by a tortured Nintendo Wii.

Also, a dolphin statuette falls from the sky and into each of your hands.

GET EQUIPPED WITH:

Dolphin Statuette

Over time, most things fade away. Isn't that right?

It's a dolphin statuette. If you rub it, you can hear the sound of the ocean. If you crouch with it for a few seconds and think of 💕That Person💕 , you'll find yourself atop a dolphin that comes splashing out of the water below (even when there isn't water below?) which will propel you forward five feet at the speed of dolphin before splashing back into the sea. You probably could've just walked that far in the time it takes to use this and got less wet, but this is way cooler.

🐬Charge!!!🐬

I definitely prefer horses.
