O.V.E.R.

Oldbrush Valley Energy and Resources (O.V.E.R.) is a secret government facility with access to spacetime technology. Mike Walters is first assigned to O.V.E.R. in order to spy and carry out missions on behalf of the Arbiters.

O.V.E.R. Locations & Security
O.V.E.R. is separated into three tiers of security, with Tier 1 being the outermost tier and the least restricted. Most of the main characters work in Tier 1 as security guards. Mike's cabin number is 63A, while Hunter's is 44C.

Tier 2 houses computers containing the Security.exe program, which serves as an access point for spacetime technology. Mike Walters has used the Security.exe program to teleport a bear, Edgar, and a portion of the Pacific Ocean. These security programs are connected via intranet to O.V.E.R.'s time travel technology.

Tier 3 contained building 357A, a building important functioning of the Security.exe program, which was destroyed in an explosion.

Building 116E
Building 116E, the Center for Security Interfacing, is located between Tiers 1 and 2. Edgar worked at the desk there, and it was where he first met Mike, who used 116E as his second attempt to sneak into Tier 2. The front door's motion sensor can be tricked open through a cloud of opaque particles; Mike used a can of air duster flipped upside down. There is a door with a keypad in the waiting room, the code for which changes every Friday. The door opens to a hallway with a series of doors, including offices and a meeting room. The hallway also leads to warehouse, with several locked bays. One bay in particular, 65N, contains a device used in the Destruction of 357A. The warehouse has two exits: a large metal door, likely for semis, and a smaller, quieter door for people.

Red Flag Cabins
Red flag cabins are off-limit cabins located in Tier 1. After first arriving to O.V.E.R, Mike was asked, as a part of WOE.BEGONE, to retrieve what was in a locked drawer of the red flag cabin 23A. This was revealed to be an envelope of pages of what Mike speculated to be an encrypted hash code. This envelope was carried to the mailbox by Mystery Hunter.

Additionally, Hunter was asked to retrieve files and a rectangular device with handles from a red flag cabin. The files let a voice commanding Hunter generate a code that authorized teleportation into Tier 3, while the device was placed into the boulders. Both events were involved in the destruction of 357A. It is unclear whether the files from this event served the same purpose as the ones Mike was asked to retrieve earlier.

The Boulders
The boulders are a collection of large rocks within Tier 2 of O.V.E.R., next to a fence separating Tiers 1 and 2. Though the complete details of their intended purpose are still largely up to speculation, they are associated with the destruction of 357A, and Punished Hunter at one point hypothesizes that they may be used to communicate safely and securely across long stretches of time. A code can be entered into a device port near the boulders through either a specialized device or, more crudely, using one's body to complete an electrical circuit.

Mike's first interaction with the boulders involved entering numbers taken from Ryan through repeated electrical shocks. This led the Flinchites to believe that Mike had access to the tool to insert codes in a safer manner. They also accused Mike of colluding to enter passwords simultaneously with another individual at a different site.

The Flinchites later forced Mike to record a tape instructing Edgar to take a device from the warehouse behind building 116E and connect it to the boulders. Mike first believed that these instructions were intended to be intercepted by the Arbiters, but this turned out to be deception on the part of the Flinchites, who did in fact send the recording to Edgar. Without correction, this would have resulted in Edgar's death.

Directed by a future Anne, Mike then broke into Tier 2 and destroyed the device port and power supply. However, these were both found to be undamaged the following night, when Anne, Edgar, and Mike entered Tier 2 to disrupt the Flinchites' and Arbiters' plans. Following the instructions he was forced to read, Mike took a device retrieved from 116E and inserted it into the boulders, aiming its antenna into Tier 3. This, as explained by Edgar, somehow enabled or initiated the destruction of 357A. During this event, Edgar was teleported away for a full year from his perspective. He returned with Marissa through the Tier 2 fence and connected a different unknown device to the boulders.

The boulders became the target of an early mission by Base, which sent O.V.E.R. Mike to attach a device to the boulders so that Base could collect the transmitted data. During this mission, O.V.E.R. Mike was spotted by Ravi while traversing the fence.

Oldbrush Valley
Oldbrush Valley is a rural location with a history of violence. In the 1920s, it was used by criminals as a place to hide bodies, and in the present day it is known to be inhabited by bears.
