Summary

The Laesa Syndicate hires Pollux, Flyboy, and Doris to smuggle drugs from the Tacoma Docks to Cara'sir.

The Meet

The team meets a Laesa Syndicate representative at a warehouse in Tacoma tucked away near a wharf. He offers them wine and mentions that King Midas has a request to smuggle a shipment of drugs from the Tacoma Docks to Cara'sir via the sea. Due to increased security on the normal land routes has slowed their drug operations, the Laesa Syndicate are trying to judge how stringent at-sea security is to see if a boat smuggling fleet is worth investing in. The Johnson states that they pay is 20,000 nuyen, with an alternative payment method being 40,000 worth of watercraft equipment if they agree to continue working with them. The team agrees to his terms without negotiating, as nobody wants to risk annoying Moth's dad.
