Sen-Aret is a Guardian of the Last City, and a member of the Hidden.
Biography
In life, Sen-Aret was a member of the Qadan culture in Mesolithic Egypt. She was killed by other Humans in a massacre and buried at Jebel Sahaba around 13,000 years ago. She was eventually resurrected by a Ghost; either due to the age of her remains or negligence from her Ghost, she was raised without any knowledge of modern language or technology, which she worked to rectify by speaking frequently with other Guardians.[1]
Sen-Aret's relationship to other Guardians was not always amicable, as she found herself 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 work she admired as Warlock Vanguard, and asked her to write an "exegesis" for the Light that would serve as a counterargument to documents such as Unveiling.[1]
Ikora attempted several drafts, but ultimately grew frustrated and abandoned the effort. A later revelation prompted Ikora to reply directly to Sen-Aret, encouraging her to keep faith in the Light and not to give up hope.[1]
