Summary

A story where Pappy Pitty decides to hire some runners to stop that infernal howling coming from the basement's basement in his Silo.

Background

Pitty 'Grease Lightning' McShane hasn't been sleeping well, and it's all do that annoying racket coming from his Silo. He thought he had cleaned it out on the prior run he requested to clear out the Silo's basement, but all they really accomplished was unveiling yet another sealed hatch descending even further into the darkness. Pitty desperately desires a good nights sleep, and he's willing to pay some shadow runners quite well to accomplish this task.

The Meet

As the runners arrive, Pappy Pitty steps out and kindly offers his signature blend of fresh coffee, which is far from fresh but quite potent. Pell takes up the challenge, sampling the smallest of sips, but nearly vomits from the disgusting sludge roiling about in her stomach. Nonplussed, Pitty takes the cup and drains it himself, obviously enured to whatever random chemicals that have found their way into his pot. Leading the team to his Silo, Pitty explains his requirements and offers to give them a tour of the upper level of the Silo, previously cleared by another team of runners. He tells a daring tale of their exploits, fighting ghouls and an 8-foot-tall monstrosity that had holed up in his Silo. Ending the tour in an area stacked with Nuclear Reactor cores, Pitty kind of shrugs and suggests that the radiation ain't to bad if you don't get to close.

Walking them to the sealed hatch, Pitty points out the the hatch has seized, and will take some work to get it open. Rhicter asks for some tools to work with, and Pappy Pitty is quick to offer a jackhammer, which makes short work of the rust and decay. Pell and Babylon summon massive Guardian Spirits to aid them in their tasks, while Rhicter and Sp4rks work on the hatch. Strapping on headlamps, the team of adventurers bravely descend into the darkness, embraced by a miasma of terror and despair.

The Plan

Bravely enter the darkness, cofront the foe, and deal with it with extreme prejudice.
