Wow, did you know that Seth the COA angel has a namesake in the paranormal world?? Who knos if the choice of the name for Nicīs character might be influenced by this other "Seth"?
Sometimes our thinking process takes us from one thing to the other... until we reach unusual places. Check this out: Apparently 40 years ago a medium named Jane Roberts spent half of her life channelling an entity called "Seth" who, while she was in a trance, "dictated" her some books which have become pretty influential in New Age circles. This paranormal "Seth" has a philosophy of his own and many followers to this day... Sounds half Buddhsit, half plain weird to me.
On a personal note, Iīll just say that I choose not to believe in any of this because itīs alien to my nature, even though I donīt deny it either because I cannot reject what I donīt know about without digging a little deeper... The thing is, I learned about all this because I just bought a best-seller entitled THE LAWS OF ATTRACTION, thinking it was a conventional self-help book, buddist style... Turns out the authors are also channelling some entity called "Abraham", in the vein of "Seth"...
