Rachel motives are unclear... However, she seemed to know that Baam would be able to get her into the tower. This is most likely the only reason she spent so much time with him. To her Baam was mostly likely just a tool she use to get into the tower. The bigger question is how did she learn of Baam and why was he abandoned in the cave? Did people fear him for some unknown reason? How did he get food in the cave or how did he survive without food? Why was he in the cave to begin with?

My theory is he was a child born outside the tower so powerful that he kill his mother at birth thus making the child too hated and feared for anyone to be willing to adopt. The people from wherever Baam was born saw the child as a danger to everyone but couldn't kill a baby (who could?) put him into the cave and sent food into the cave somehow every so often for him to eat. At some point whomever is taking care for Baam from afar want to teach him but still fears going anywhere near him. This is where Rachel comes into the picture. She wanting more than anything to get into the tower learns of this powerful child agrees to teach him in exchange she one day get to use his power to get her into the tower. This would explain her fear of Baam and her anger towards him when he got into the tower and she did not.

This theory is silly and probably more than 70% wrong, but I like to guess... :p
