Summary
Three runners head to Halifax and Oak Island to retrieve a small idol from a deceased dragon's vault. On the way they meet a dragon, two brothers, a drake and a legend.
Background
The Irving Corporation working with the local university and Atlantean Foundation have been working on a dig. The target of their efforts is a vault on Oak Island, at the terminus of a Ley Line, formerly owned by Dunkelzahn. They have uncovered the main door, but have not yet been able to gain entry. At the same time Vermithrax, a dragon with keen ambition, has been working on taking over the Irving Corporation using his holding company, Pentax.
The Matrix Meet
The runners are called and asked to join a meeting in VR. Inside they meet an unknown Johnson who describes a high paying job (40k and 1 'item of value') to fly to Halifax and retrieve an object. The runners get out of their prospective employer that the place is well guarded, though not extra-territorial. They will be responsible for their own travel, but the expenses will be reimbursed. And of course there's somebody else after the loot.
Upon accepting the job, the Johnson reveals the object is an obsidian and orichalcum idol of a dragon standing over a crystral structure. It is also revealed that it formerly belonged to Dunkelzahn and that the vault was also his. Perhaps foolishly the runners accept the job and begin to make their preparations.
