The Force Field momentarily becomes visible as a hawk flies into it.

The Force Field is an invisible field of energy that surrouds the Cabin, keeping all entities not controlled by the Organisation out, and all of the victims in. Nothing seems to be able to pass directly through the Field, and it appears to have some sort of electrocution effect that kills or disables living things that come into contact with it. The field encompasses a large area around the Cabin, extending high into the air above as well as down into a deep ravine. It is believed that the Field surrounds the entirety of the area around the cabin, the only portal being the mountain tunnel. Its full extent and the principles behind its operation are never explored. It can be inferred that such specialized technology was needed to contain Monsters capable of flight as well as those whose nature would allow them to breech purely physical barriers.

Appearance[]

The Field is entirely invisible except when in contact with an object. If an object crashes into the field, the field will light up in a glowing hexagonal pattern for a moment before becoming transparent once again.

Passage Through[]

There seems to be no way to break through the Field and direct contact seems to kill or at least harm living things. The only way through the Field is a small tunnel which runs through a mountain a small distance from the Cabin, which the victims must enter to reach the cabin. Once inside, the victims can theoretically escape through the tunnel, but the Organisation collapses the tunnel with explosives to prevent escape.
