An investigator from a digital human society takes a physical body to trace an intrusion originating on the Earth its residents left behind.
Angela leaves the virtual world DEVA with an armed mechanical suit. Her mission brings her into contact with a ground-dweller whose everyday priorities differ from those of her superiors.
The investigation requires Angela to experience a place that her society treats as somewhere to leave. Having a body makes distance, exertion and practical dependence immediate concerns instead of abstract data. Her partnership on the ground gives the mission a perspective that its original orders cannot supply alone. Consider it for an action-oriented science-fiction story that uses the contrast between digital residence and physical life to complicate a search for an intruder.
