Summary
Lingchi makes good on her promise to her cousin Hao Lin to free him of his binding tattoos that kept him chained to the Triads.
As a result, her home is burned and she is now wanted by the Yellow Lotus Triad.
Background
During the events of The Full Moon Makes the Flowers Bloom Lingchi met her cousin Hao Lin - who referred to her as Jingyi. After working through her outrage, she rescued him from a car crash (which she caused) and patched him up. A promise was made to help him break the bonds he's been placed in.
The Meet
A cold call is made, and when Lingchi picks up it's who she expects - Hao calling, asking that she hold up her promise. He explains that he's being watched by the beast spirit which Sojourner and Lingchi fought two months ago, with close tabs being kept on his location after the death of the vampire he'd been meeting with.
Stakes established, the mage starts to plan.
The Plan
Lingchi mulls things over for a few seconds, then comes up with the best plan she can:
Have Hao go to a shop with a decent ward, then let Sojourner gank the spirit on the astral as he crosses the threshold to safety. She and Hao can exit from the back.
From there, she'll take him to her home where she has a lodge to work at breaking his bindings.
