Pell finds that the Blue Lotus Mafia are a group of pirates, smugglers, and killers that are now expanding into Seattle. One of the mafia's more brutal enforcers, Red Dragon, has also appeared in Seattle. Gallant's raven spirit returns and explains the general location of the truck and battery.

Gallant
Wha'... th' actual... fuck. Shit was wild.
Pell
Well, that was absolutely wild. Unfortunate that we couldn't rescue the staff. Loads of new runners nowadays.
Ramen Shamen
Honestly, so many snacists in and around Seattle, my interactions with the guards left a bad taste in my mouth, but we thankfully had Pell around to stop any gaps.
That was a trip. It got kinda crazy for a while, but we managed to pull it off. Bad deal with the drivers, but it's a dangerous job.
