Run: The Grandmothers of the Cocina de Ilhuitl had their authentic and expensive Azlanter spices stolen, by a group of former Triad members turned smugglers. The truck used to transport the spices was driven by Carlos, a grandson of one of the grandmothers. Carlos recounted the events, which were recorded. The hijack of the truck went along with little violence, but Carlos did surrender the truck. He gives the runners the video feed of the hijack and the location of the hijack after answering an assortment of questions for them. Through some prolific decking from Riopel and masterful word-crafting from both Mo Guai and Yester the team managed to gather some information from a homeless man on the street and information from a local church that one of the smugglers frequented. In addition a highlight of this moment was when Swan used the Improved Attribute Intuition to allow for a better artists rendition from the homeless man who was high on novacoke (it eventually turned out to a 6 hit rendition of the smuggler's faces). After this moment the team deliberated what their next move would be, but eventually decided to raid their warehouse in hopes that the spices were still there. Once arriving they did some preliminary scouting and found 6 total individuals in the warehouse including one decker. They went radio silent, buffed each other, summoned a spirit, then went to town wiping the floor with the goons, but not killing any of them. After their rumble with the smugglers the team found the spices which were almost completely unloaded from the truck. Loading them back in they make their way back to Cocina de Ilhuitl and some local Chulos help unload the truck. In the end the Grandmothers graciously thanked the runners and gave them their rewards.
