EcoQuest 1: The Search for Cetus

Walkthrough

You begin the quest at your home. Talk with your father. Look at the seagull.  Poor thing, it's covered with oil. Take the detegent and the rag beside the box. Pour some detegent on the rag and use it to clean the seagull. Before  your father leave, he'll pass you a bottle of fertilizer and a transmitter.  Look at the tank of water. It's full of oil, pour some of the fetilizer inside and let the bacteria eats up the oil. Look at the cage, the gerbil is thirsty.  Get the water beside the cage and give it to the gerbil.

Take the letter on the chair. It contains your certificate and a membership  card. Take the letter on the chair and dump it in the recycle box. Look at the computer. Look at it a second time to play King Quest V. Get  the aluminium can on the table and throw into the recycle box. Pick up the trash bag. Look at the blackboard.  Click on the individual part of the drawing for more details.

It's time to leave the room. Open the door with the combination number  9731. You are now inside the swimming pool. Read the instructions on the blackboard. Talk to dolphin a few times. Get mackeral from the  bucket and feed the dolphin a few times. Go inside the pool and ride  the dolphin. Get the frisbee and  throw it at the dolphin. Play with the dolphin until it starts talking. Talk to it. It's name is  Delphineus.  Throw the frisbee at the dolphin a few more  times. Look at the propeller and see how it was kept safe. Pull the lever beside  the gate to open the hatch. The dolphin will then swim away.

The Oracle will then  ask you three riddles and tell you to click on  the picture to answer it.  For my case the 3 answers are : MAN, FISH and LOVE. (I don't know whether everytime the same riddles will be asked or not) The oracle will tell you to gain the trust of the citizens of Eluria before it tell you the prophecy.
