Summary

We're fucking KILLING shuten douji.

Background

Ms. Johnson had people look into shuten douji before. It's blocking the way to Hachi Zetto Shiyon, and she's decided the best way past it is through it. She's hired runners to fucking KILL shuten douji.

The Meet

The runners met with Ms. Johnson in a matrix bar, space themed. She offers 40k nuyen and some baseline information on the job, the host's location, the beast's last known stats, and information gleaned from decker 'interviews.' She offers 40k, nuyen, though the runners somehow negotiate that even higher, as well as for some bonus information.

The Plan

Recreate the myth of Shuten Douji - research the divine sake, get some good simsense, and go inside. Caliban has more direct ideas though she does like this plan, to go inside herself to see, and Bhop insists she follow to make sure she doesn't kill herself. After briefly resting away some fade, the other two finish research and follow along as well.

The Run

Inside the host is a large, medieval Japanese city inside a huge cave lit by lava. The runners look around inside and find that the exit out of the host moves with every new entrant. Searching for more information regarding the host sculpting, they enter a torii gate, and encounter a group of yokai feasting on human remains. Combat ensues. E-Mad goes into the large skeleton mouth in a bid to try to escape the situation.
