Chapter One - "Mosaics"
Some olympic_bath_mosaics are scenery in Colossal Baths. They are ambiguously plural. The printed name is "mosaic". Understand "mosaic", "mosaics", "colorful", "stone", "picture", "pictures", "shimmer", "shimmering", "reflection", "ripple", "design", "designs", "portrait", and "portraits" as the olympic_bath_mosaics. Instead of doing anything other than examining with the olympic_bath_mosaics, say "They're at the bottom of the baths."
