In this ancient text, The Watchers are known as the Grigori . They are a specific order of angels dispatched by the Divine to observe humanity. Their task was passive: to watch, record, and guide subtly. However, the narrative takes a dark turn. According to the legend, these angels looked down upon the daughters of men and found them beautiful. Consumed by desire, 200 of these Watchers, led by their commanders Samyaza and Azazel, descended upon Mount Hermon.
