Hesper is from Wizards at War! They are an Unfallen Lone Power - the first one we've met.
K't'lk is presented by the canon as a good guy, sure! But the entire plot of that book is "K't'lk introduces entropy to a new universe without thinking through the consequences, and then helps the new life in that universe Choose Death." It's a Lone Power story put through inversion. She even more or less is exiled from Timeheart for it, though with her consent. I don't know if DD had worked through the implications of Young Wizards cosmology that far by then - Wounded Sky and SYWTBAW released in the same year - but if K't'lk is not some kind of avatar of the Hesper I will eat my hat.
