Obsidian Hints
How do I get to the Bureau Chief?
1 of 14: Wait until you talk to the woman in the light bulb on the Nexus Face. Before then, you'll need to go through the system to get the bridge fixed.
4 of 14: "Orient militia" translates to "limitation".
5 of 14: Read the document there, and you'll find out what to do.
6 of 14: Now, go to the Executive Face and work the controls there.
7 of 14: You need to set the three numbers on the right to read "934".
8 of 14: Next, notice the three sliders on the left of the controls.
9 of 14: They trace out the faces of the cube here.
10 of 14: You can select your destination with those sliders.
11 of 14: The lines on the controls correspond to planes. You will be transported to the intersection of those planes.
12 of 14: Make those planes intersect at the Bureau Chief's office. The position is indicated on the "Limitation" document.
13 of 14: Move the left slider to the bottom position, and move the other two sliders to approximately 1/4 of the way from the bottom (in the middle of the bottom face). The slider on the right should be directly over the chief's office.
14 of 14: Then, press the button and you'll be able to reach a new location.
