Armory

The armory is located between east wing and offices. Take the stairs up west of the fountain at east wing main hall or take the eastern stairs down from offices. Mediant Samuel is the highest-ranking preservation officer in the Institute while the Harmost is visiting Deep Caverns. Efreitor Hanna is the local armory keeper.

Physics Lab

The physics laboratory is at the north end of east wing. Schteff is the principal investigator of this section. Investigator Kiro is an electronics merchant whose services you can use if you get permission from the principal investigator.

Chemistry Lab

The chemistry laboratory is at the east end of east wing. Georgis is the principal investigator of this section. Octavia is a chemical merchant whose services you can use if you get permission from the principal investigator.

Genetics Lab

The genetics laboratory is at the south end of east wing. Rista is the principal investigator of this section. Investigator Vuk is a biology merchant whose services you can use if you get permission from the principal investigator.

A part of the utility section is forbidden even to most Tchortists. It is possible to sneak in using the hidden ventilation shaft in west wing.
