Winters, will interrupt the advertisement and you will hear your father explain 
in more detail, the trouble he and global computer networks are in, and how you 
must help. This message will be stored as a recording in your P.D.A.

Zel has included a  recording taken of  his enemy Walter Sayle, at a meeting 
with his creations, The Disciples. This recording reveals his plans, and 
explains that he has taken the databank of Zel Winters and placed it under the 
guard of The Disciples. Zel tells you that your mission is to reconstruct him as 
an artificial life form, so that he can help you defeat Walter Sayle. First, you 
must locate the databank and free it from The Disciples' control. This second
