okay friend a few points here to the things you've said with a bunch of assumptions that are likely but not 100% confirmed for the most part

1)the cave is a prison and Baam is either dangerous or should be hidden

so the cave isn't inside of the tower, but would they put it somewhere people could just find it?

2)Rachel doesn't stay with Baam all the time. There were times in the cave when Rachel would leave Baam. There was a flashback of them playing some game and Rachel then says that it's already late and that she has to leave and Baam also asks her if he can come with her but she doesn't allow him to come (my asumption here is that by leaving Baam alone Rachel shows Baam how it is when she leaves him and somewhat creates a desire for him to want her back and that is ultimately Baam's sole desire for a big part of the plot). Okay, we don't really know if Rachel was free beyond that cave. she probably wasn't but we don't know much about it.

3) Rachel's knowledge about the tower and the outside. She talks about chosen people, climbing the tower, recognizes Headon as something (while she might be wrong in assuming who or what he is for all we know) and she knows about the sky/stars. While we pretty much know that it is extremely difficult and probably almost impossible to do, we do have reasons to belive that you can actually leave the tower. People talking about it and Baam's existence might be the best indicators of that, so I assume that Rachel either comes from within the tower or was instructed by someone from the inside or got a message from the inside. I think that is a whole lot more likely than her just hearing about all those things about the tower AND the outside. Also the way she's talking about the stars and sky it's like she's never seen it. To be fair Urek did also talk about stars and the sky and talked like it was something really special and he is confirmed from the outside but for all we know he might just miss it very much.

I also don't like the idea of Rachel slipping through the door that appearded for Baam and I also don't think that she hates him, personally, it's more like watching him makes her realize how unfair the world is and stuff like that, at times.

There's the restroom mirror scene with Rachel and Androssi for example, where Androssi tells Rachel that she hopes what Rachel is looking for at the top is worth more than Baam and Rachel doesn't say anything and has a worried (for the lack of a better word) look on her face. Then later Baam asks her personally and she answers him without a second to think about it and very clearly (something like much more important than you Baam). I think there are a lot of times when she said rough/mean things and people are like yeah now she's showing her true colors (=bitch), but I think that we're probably the times she lied the most.
