[Kaetos is in fact the Demon Lord of the upper reaches of the Abyss; a place most unfortunate travelers must first navigate should they wish to live long enough to see any other parts of the plane Caedra belongs to. She has only been there once, as a newly-dead soul ferried through by a skilled mercenary captain who knew he would be paid well for his special delivery. She remembers none of it, but somewhere deep within, the fear of his presence still lingers even though she now only knows his image thanks to the records in their archives at Ironhold.
Caedra does not fear the depths of the sea or the beasts that lurk there, but that creature could undo the whole of her existence and she knows it.]
