Angels
The lowest and closest order of angels: the messengers and guardians who walk beside individual people and places. The word angelos is 'messenger', and this is the choir that gives the whole order its name.
The lowest choir is the one closest to human life in the Pseudo-Dionysian scheme; the corpus records the hierarchy and does not present it as a fixed dogma.
