 +               destroy omnius

 +//Erasmus say:  I'm glad that you're happy to help with this.  This is going to
 +be a difficult quest.  You will need to find several items all of which we will 
 +discuss, but some of which I am unsure of their location.  Our primary concern is 
 +that Omnius does not manifest here nor anywhere else.  In order to prevent his
 +re-creation here, we must enter a virus into his program.  I can do this, however,
 +I will need a copy of the Omnius code.  You can download this code which is
 +resonating in space.  You will need to find a downloader device and download it
 +from the antennas on the roof.  We cannot simply read this data however, its
 +encrypted. Beowulf has the decoder somewhere, probably in his private vault.
 +So you need to find the downloader, download Omnius, get the decoder and 
 +'present devices' to me. After that I will have more instructions for you.
 +You will be rewarded generously if you help me.//
 +
 +
 +  * Look in the room north of the entrance in the base to get on a path to the downloader

 +      
 +//The light on the downloader devices changes to GREEN indicating
 +      that the files have successfully downloaded.//
 +
 +
 +  * Now that you have the downloader, time to go to Beowulf's location and enter behind, where there is a vault that asks a password.
 +The password is in the Office building

 +//On it you see the number:

 +You type in the correct key.  The vault opens and you take the decoder!//
 +
 +  * Go back to Erasmus

 +               present devices
 +               
 +//Erasmus say:  AH.  Yes.  Here is the code and the decoder. 
 +I have reprogrammed the code and uploaded it to the downloader.  Take this to
 +the computer room and insert it into the terminal.  My virus will take over 
 +the system, corrupt the Ominus system here and broadcast a new corrupted 
 +signal.  You will get a boot log.  Bring the log back for your reward. 
 +when you have it type 'finish quest'.//
 +
 +  * Go back to the Office building

 +
 +There are several computers.  One of them has an open slot to insert things into.

 +        
 +        A small boot  log is printed and you take it.//

 +Erasmus say:  Congratulations!  You have rid the universe. 
 +      of Ominus. At least for now.
 +      
 +You have completed a minor quest!
 +      
 +Erasmus hands you a hefty pouch of solaris.

 +You feel like you have discovered a point of interest.
