Hook
While helping a former subordinate escape the clutches of the Yakuza, Nora Inu barely avoids running into the clutches of bug spirits while navigating the tunnels of the Ork Underground underneath Redmond. In a later run, she overhears Yokai, a local legend, proclaim himself the slayer of otherworldly monstrosities and all who would threaten the existence of this world. They meet at Troll Stack to talk shop while chowing down on a barrel of blueberry pancakes. They'll need two things: Allies, and proof of these spirits to get those allies riled up.
Prep
They hop into an arms shop named Human Solutions, to get some Narcoject supplies for a life bug capture, and run into Firepower, a troll buying a light cannon, adapted to be handheld. Nora chats him up, and they invite him to come along, for fame and glory, and for the Ork Underground. Not only is he hella down to shoot up some bugs, he's also going to bring his crew. The runners split ways, Yokai seeking out support from the Scracha and the Sons of Sauron, while Nora Inu contacts Seattle's Ex-Firewatch with whom she curried favour during AC/DC - Thunderstruck, and secures safe passage for the troops and further combat and astral support from the infected living underneath the Redmond Barrens. She never learns the name of the old infected lady with the white eyes who can summon a myriad of different spirits as quickly as she can tap her walking stick on the ground.
Run
Guarded and aided by one of Yokai's spirits, Nora snags a life bug, a grotesquely bloated creature who used to be a NeoPD employee, and now has had their arms replaced with large metal claws that drip magical acid. They meet their allies in D'Fuhk, smooth over any differences between the factions, rally them with a speech, execute the bug and roll out through the territory of the infested.
