In most of the lands of The Vicious Planet the guardian is a figure that is revered. In some of the lands the guardian is a leader. But not in the Orange Lands. In the Orange Lands the guardian is a monster to be feared. No one knows much about Keether. As far as anyone can tell he is incapable of speech but he is not without intelligence. He seems to wander the great forests of the Orange Lands aimlessly.
The people of the Orange Lands have a saying, "stay to the left". This refers to Keether. They dread the possibility of falling under the gaze of Keether's right eye. But Keether is blind on his left side, which raises a question, what happened to his left eye?
