Olin's Apartment is an unmarked location in Horizon Zero Dawn located in Meridian.
Description[]
The residence is an extravagant, three-floored complex. With the exception of the basement, the entire home is heavily adorned in Carja decorations and furnishings.
Three areas of the residence are accessible: the living room, which is located on the ground floor; the bedroom, on the second floor (and equipped with a makeshift attic); and the basement workshop. Access to the basement is controlled via a cellar door in the living room, locked with an Oseram vault and hidden by a large rug.
History[]
Horizon Zero Dawn[]
It was formerly the residence of Olin Delverson while he was staying in Meridian, funded by his connections in the Sun-Court. While there is a picture of Olin's family on the second floor, it is unclear whether Olin's wife or son took residence in the home prior to their abduction by the Eclipse.
Investigating Olin's involvement with the Eclipse, Erend and Aloy broke into the apartment to search for clues of Olin's whereabouts. Noticing a frayed corner on a rug, Aloy discovered the door to the basement. On the second floor, Aloy found a stack of metal bars, which she pushed down onto the hatch below to break it open. Venturing into the secret workshop, Aloy and Erend discovered information regarding Olin and the Eclipse, including his current location.
After Olin's departure from the Sundom (or death), Sun-King Avad allows Aloy to stay at the apartment to rest before the final battle with HADES and the Eclipse.
Horizon Forbidden West[]
After returning to Meridian and learning of Sylens' theft of HADES, Aloy decided to stay the night before leaving on a her journey into the Forbidden West to track down the rogue AI. In response, Spy Master Marad made arrangements to once again allow her usage of the apartment. However, Aloy actually intended to use this opportunity to leave Varl, who was adamant about following her, while he was sleeping, which she successfully did.

Trivia[]
- If Aloy inspects the apartment before sleeping, ending The Looming Shadow, the tapestry of Olin and his family and his journal, both of which she found in the apartment when she first inspected it in The City of the Sun, will be absent. Presumably Olin took them with him back to The Claim after Collateral. Additionally, the Focus carrying Helis’ message and the map showing Eclipse dig sites will also be absent. Presumably Olin destroyed them before leaving.
