Summary
Background
Carleton Moreau has been awakening spirits which enable quick and stealth transportation along song-lines. The old Orient Express is next in turn to enable that kind transportation between Paris and Istanbul with a few possible stops along the line.
The Meet
Carleton has hired Alkali, Lady Argentum, Delphi, and Thunder through their respective fixers and invited them to his office in the Zephyr-South building. Armed with a huge platter full with delicious Sandwiches from Redmond Delicatessen up for grabs, he explains that the runners are expected to desguise as body guards and staff of his sociopathic Billionaire brother in-law Thurson Bernard Howell VII, during his trip on the Orient express between Paris and Istanbul. While it is utterly important to body-guard Thurson and keep him safe, Carleton explains that the hidden agenda is to awaken a Free Spirit of Man which is the old Orient Express, once the current Orient Express reaches Sinaia (Romania). As an extra perk, the runners are offerd 5 000 Nuyen bonus from Carleton's whife Virginia who has a bet going against her brother, above mentioned Thurson, about who will figure out the murder history which will take place on the regular orient express during the trip. (note: Virginia will not even be travelling on the train-trip). The runners accept the jobs.
