Covenant (35 page)

Sariel
: Kim's Jinn name, given to him by his deceased Jinn father; Troy always refers to him by this name.

Sophia
: the human form of the Book of Raziel; though commonly regarded by others as as a “thing,” Sophia has a strong personality that belies her delicate appearance; she told Angela Mathers that her body was created by Lucifel as a Revenant, with the ability to be destroyed and resurrected by Lucifel as long as Sophia is in her power; she said she originally died in childbirth, which Angela has come to believe is a lie.

St.
Matthias Church
: an old church in Luz no longer in use; it is the place where Angela and Israfel first met.

Stephanie Walsh
: a blood head witch now imprisoned in Luz's sanatorium; at one time, she was suspected of being the Archon and headed Westwood Academy's infamous Pentacle Sorority; she is the demon Naamah's adopted daughter, and is indirectly responsible for Brendan Mathers's death, as well as the deaths of many other individuals in Luz; Stephanie went insane after Lucifel possessed her, forcing her to try and open Sophia against her will; she was in love with Kim (Sariel).

Supernals
: the highest-ranking angels of all; they are three siblings, Israfel, Raziel, and Lucifel, known collectively as the Angelic Trinity; unlike most angels, the Supernals have six wings, but they rarely reveal them all; they were created directly by the Father and are immortal and with immense power.

Theban
: the demonic tongue; in its written form it resembles a scripting of curves and sharp lines.

Thrones
: the angelic rank acting as bodyguards for higher-ranking angels; most Thrones have a deformity of one kind or another; they are suspected to be derivatives of the sphinx-like Cherubim.

Tongue of Souls
: otherwise known as Latin, it has the power to harm or bind angels, demons, and Jinn.

Troy
: the greatest Jinn city in the Underworld, destroyed millennia ago by an alliance between the angels and demons that was Python's work; it is often used among the Jinn as a given name, and is the name of the current High Assassin of the Jinn.

Underworld
: name for the dimensions in Hell that are home to the Jinn.

Vapor
: the term for a Jinn familiar; they are a human soul within an animal body, usually that of a crow, cat, or dog; Vapors communicate with their masters through telepathy.

Vermilion Order
: a growing coalition of blood head students at Westwood Academy who wish to segregate themselves from the remaining student population.

Westwood Academy
: an illustrious school that is the only haven for blood heads in the world; maintained and run by Vatican officials, Westwood derived its name from the enormous oak tree (Tileaf's tree) that could be found in Memorial Park, near the western coast of Luz.

Witch
: a female human who can conjure angels or demons.

Zion
: the currently reigning Archangel of Heaven; one of Lucifel's legendary children, presumed to have been executed long ago.
