Meaning & History

Used in the 'House of Night' series of fantasy novels (written by American author P. C. Cast and her daughter Kristin Cast), where it belongs to the favorite son of the fallen angel Kalona. It is probably taken a biblical term which "can refer either to a mythical race of giants, or to dead ancestors who are residents of the Netherworld."
