She was killed by other [[Human]]s in a massacre and buried at Jebel Sahaba around 13,000 years ago.

Her relationship to other Guardians was not always amicable, as Sen-Aret was disturbed by the cynicism of certain Guardians towards the [[Light]] and their willingness to hear out arguments made by the [[Darkness]]. Sen-Aret believed strongly in the Light and felt that this cynicism was the result of Guardians only hearing about the conflict between Light and Darkness from the Darkness's perspective due to the [[Speaker]]'s death and the [[Traveler]]'s continual silence. Some time before the events of ''[[The Witch Queen]]'', she wrote a letter to the [[Warlock]] [[Vanguard]], [[Ikora Rey]], whose early career as a caravan guard she admired, and asked her to write an "exegesis" for the Light that would serve as a counterargument to documents such as [[Lore:Unveiling|Unveiling]].<ref name="Hidden Dossier"/> | |||
