Opinion of mortals:
Kalla sees them as interesting and creative creatures and often delights in inspiring them to create new magic or attain greater understanding of themselves and others. Kairos on the other hand has very little if any interest or care for them and while he does enjoy seeing their progress or innovation beyond that he rarely acknowledges them.

Background:
During the war between the archaic gods and their younger counterparts life was not easy for the gods of magic as while they simply sought to maintain the flow of energies throughout the world they were swept up in the conflict. At first Kallandra spoke out against both sides, citing a need for peace and cooperation while Kairos ignored events, preferring to focus on his own matters as he had always done. However when his counterpart was attacked and wounded by some of the younger gods it brought him to rage and from that point on the gods of magic were fully dedicated to the destruction of these upstarts, even if Kallandra still tried to stay Kairos’ killing hand at times. In the great war more often than not Kairos was venturing alone against his enemies with little regard for himself or for anything of import save returning with their heads and as such his control of magic had become irrational and out of control.
On one such occasion the god had found himself surrounded by several of the younger gods, outnumbered and beaten he was brought low at last. Lying in the ruined earth, bleeding and dazed he barely heard the taunting by some pathetic wretch who went on at length about how he planned to replace the god of magic and take the mantle for himself. While this had been going on Kallandra was seeking her elder Kairos when she felt his wounds and bindings, and began to pour power into him to free him from captivity. The magical energy around the broken god warped reality and cracked the land below as he shattered his bonds and reached for the usurper to their throne but the others remained free and deadly strikes rained down upon the stormlord. Weaving incantations around his body and ignoring the pleading cries of dear Kallandra he struck out, magic ripping through the other childish deities as he saw them.
The result of their wounds as well as his own combined with his unstable magic was that the dozen of lesser deities who sought to end him perished as he too split apart in a maelstrom of unleashed energies. However while they were cast into oblivion, He endured though the cost was that his mind was shattered and swept throughout the world while his body crumbled with the others. His temple at the heart of the storm Isles, there but not there in the raging storm clouds that ring the highest mountains is where he exists now. He is the swirling clouds that rage across the world in wanton destruction and without control. His body and mind have begun to reform slowly but aspects of his wilder emotions are still free upon the world, acting as personifications of himself till brought under control once more. Due to this most of the other gods view him as deranged and would rather have him dealt with for fear that in his madness he might seek to end the world. But Kallandra argues for him for they balance each other and maintain a peace between them, and her word has kept him safe from reprieve for an age.
Even now when he returns is frequent flashes he rarely stays long in the corporeal realm as a living being, preferring to exist as the storms or the very magic that mortal and immortal alike wield upon the earth. Kallandra however while equally prone to mood swings is often to be found in a mortal form but greatly enjoys the wild release of her counterpart.
If one seeks an audience with Magic itself then it is to be expected to deal with contradictions at every turn.
