>he drowned in the pond
I can definitely see it, though I see it more of being disposed rather than drowning in it.
>Hood being her Dad
That I certainly doubt being the case because we see a young Nia hanging out with her dad in one of the Patreon posts and meeting "Hood" in Underwater, also at a young age, which imo should be just enough to treat them as two separate people unless that's been retconned (or will be, given the teaser).
