... and have been running around in circles on the internet between wikipedia, monstropedia, and some other sites in between as they all refer to certain things without explaining them. So, as you can imagine, I have a few questions.
Firstly, there are numerous references to some sort of hierarchy amongst the fallen angels. Apparently Abaddon (who is referred to in some places as the destroying angel of the apocalypse and one of God's right hand soldiers and other times as a fallen angel) is of the 7th Hierarchy, and commands the Sixth House of Hell and is the ruler of the Abyss. But I don't know what the Hierarchy is, what the Houses of Hell are, or the Abyss.
Can anyone answer this for me, or point me to a good reference?
