“Your powers musn't go to waste. Or get muzzled by the light-makes-right brigade. I’d like to see you survive the Underking and earn your freedom. I’d appreciate your help with other adventures. But mostly I want you to develop to your highest potential” (178).

These are spoken by Ronodin Seth's enemy, but during Seth's memory loss Ronodin helps Seth develop his powers and hone in on his abilities. Ronodin sounds like he actually cares about Seth but we know that he only wants Seth's help to fuel his own needs. It is just crazy to see what he is willing to do to succeed
