''Shaol'' has a more plausible meaning in Irish (''"Saol"''), meaning "Life". Conversely, it might also allude to ''"Sheol"'', the "realm of the dead" in the Hebrew Bible. It kind of goes out of habit, as AV is known for using Hindi, Sumerian or Indian variants, but since [[Athetos]] is in Greek, exceptions can happen.

			== As a mini-boss ==
			Pretty straightforward, it is believed that before being scrapped, Shaol was turned into a mini-boss, serving the same purpose as [[Sentinel]] or just being a replacement.

			Some parts of Shaol were used for other elements in the game, either some zones of [[Mar-Uru]], the idea for [[Sentinel]] or [[Athetos]], etc. A lot of people argue that Shaol was never removed, but turned into [[Sentinel]].
