Angelic Hierarchy
The Darkness and God had just completed their resurrections, revelations, repairs, and other work in what was now the Commonwealth of Heaven. Remaining was not only a fearsome Host of Heaven, but an expanded one due to divine intervention, now numbering a thousand thousands and ten thousand ten thousands.
Since the divine intervention, this Host was comprised of four Holy Living Ones, four Valiant Ones, four Electric Ones, seventy or so Fiery Ones, hundreds of Seraphim with wings restored, many thousands of Brilliant Ones, millions of regular Angels with wings restored, millions of Upper Ones, millions of Strong Ones, millions of Children of the Strong Ones, millions more of Cherubim of a few classes, and still millions more of Supernal Men.
The angels of this Host presented themselves before seven dozen who had convened a grand council. Among the seven dozen were the freshmen Fiery Ones Zagzagel, Yefefiah, Yahoel, Uziel, Sahaquiel, Sabriel, Rikbiel, Pravuel, Oriphiel, Marmoniel, Cecitiel, Akatriel-Yah, Zachariah, Selaphiel, Kepharel, and Hannah. Also among the seven dozen were the senior Fiery Ones Sariel, Jerahmeel, Hofniel, and Barachiel. Grouped with them were the Electric Ones Anna, Tzadkiel, Raziel, and Camael. Also grouped with them were the Valiant Ones Castiel, Jehudiel, Raguel, and Zaphkiel. Last, but not least, gathered amongst them were the Holy Living Ones Israfil, Sandalphon, Phanuel, and Metatron.
"Well, where do we begin?" began the former employee of the month for too long to count, before he focused his attention upon the most knowledgeable scribe.
"Well," quipped the former human female, "what's with Meta-absentee being one of the most powerful beings in the Host?"
"If it weren't for Amara," the tall man in a simple trench coat interrupted, "he'd still be dead at her hands."
"Still?" wondered the recent feminine leader of Heaven, "So Aunt Amara killed him and then brought him back to life?"
"Enough," requested the scribe, "None of us would be where we are, this very moment, without the divine exchanges between Chuck and Amara."
"All God said about our numbers," recalled Zachariah, ''was that the Supernal Men are reproductive celestial creations to handle our multiple problems with demons, fairies, self-declared deities of the pagan type, witches, and monsters."
"He didn't say why all the other upgrades were made," reminded Metatron, "but I have an idea."
Author's Note: This is set not long after the Bonding Outside The Bar chapter titled "Commonwealth Of Heaven." Recapped below is the full angelic hierarchy of the human-friendly Commonwealth of Heaven:
The four absent Archangels – Michael, Lucifer, Raphael, and Gabriel;
The four Holy Living Ones (Chayot Ha Kodesh) – a resurrected Metatron, Phanuel, Sandalphon, and Israfil;
The four Valiant Ones (Erelim) – Zaphkiel, Raguel, Jehudiel, and the one and only Castiel;

The seventy or so Fiery Ones (Shinanim) – Barachiel, Hofniel, Jerahmeel, and Sariel, plus the one and only Hannah, Kepharel, Selaphiel, and the one and only Zachariah, plus Akatriel-Yah, Cecitiel, Marmoniel, Oriphiel, Pravuel, Rikbiel, Sabriel, Sahaquiel, Uziel, Yahoel, Yefefiah, Zagzagel, and the rest;
The hundreds-numbered Seraphim - Seraphiel, Sippur, and the rest;
The thousands-numbered Brilliant Ones (Tarshishim);
The millions-numbered regular Angels;

Four older angels of a missing type, the Wheels (Ophanim), will make an appearance at some point in the fanfic series: Sarathiel, Sidriel, Zephaniel, and Zophiel. Also, the full angelic hierarchy of the independent Republic of Heaven, under a resurrected Uriel, is under development.
