Following Orca's defeat at the hands of Skeith, Linda was contacted by Bob, who arranged a meeting between her and Kite. Though she originally didn't want to help the young character, after hearing that Kite was also a friend of Orca she decided to help. She told Kite about the field Δ Lonely Silent Great Seal which Orca had been investigating. Later in Mutation she e-mails Kite with the name of another field that Orca had been investigating.
