Background
Moth knew that Angela was actually a sentient AI, though Renraku thought she was just a library agent. She didn't knew the history of how Angela had emerged.
Both Angela and Night Claws are teachers for schools of technomancers.
A number of kidnappings have happened in the Redmond area, including several of Angela's technomancy students.
Moth helped rescue a technomancy student, Rose, (see report: XX) and learned in the process that someone had hired both the Cutters and Yakuza to kidnap people in Redmond, and had supplied them with Laes to dose the victims. This is extremely interesting to Moth because Laes is an exclusive product of the Laesa Syndicate, run by her father Using "N.." as property chain is not permitted during the annotation process., and for which she is a made man. The Laesa have an exclusive contract with the government of Tir Tairngire who are thought to have the only laesal trees in the world, in their government-controlled orchard. It is absolutely unacceptable for anyone else to be distributing Laes! She researched this issue, worked with her father to verify that they had not sold the Laes in question, and worked through his contacts in the Tir Tairngire government to learn that a laesal tree had been stolen eight years ago. The Syndicate must find that tree and cut off the supply. Moth assumed from all the detail she had learned so far that the laesal tree was somewhere under Renraku's control, and this dive into the matrix host would reveal where, so they could plan to extract it.
Moth had also learned that both gangs involved in kidnappings had unusual drones hovering over their operations. Mysterious VTOL. The appearance of these strange drones had been reported in the news (see report.)
