Concept Art 71: Children of Ixim

These pods and the humans birthed by these are called Children of Ixim, Ixim for short when only referring to the new humans. Ixim in Mayan means Maize, this is a reference to the Mayan creation myths, where gods tried to create humankind 3 times, they failed twice (this refers to the Repha'im and the Crocolyd in the Arcadian  Mythos version) and in the last attempt they used Maize and their blood which then turned into the humankind of today.

Ixim also sounds like Ishim, the name for the lowest hierarchy type of celestial beings in judeo-christian angelology, which is described as the closest to mankind. So in this sense, the Ixim of Arcadia are pseudo-heavenly beings created by Adam and Adonai to mimic human likeness. Still, they are fundamentally more powerful than real humans since they can effortlessly harness Magh's power. These analogies are also important in context with Asher's journey since as I've mentioned before, in some sense Kyrios represents Christ, and Asher does represent Lucifer and his dichotomy. Lucifer incited a Rebellion against god convincing many angels to join their army for many reasons, one of them being because Lucifer declined to bow to God's newest and perfect creation, humankind but more specifically, Adam. The second one is that Lucifer rejected the idea of serving Christ, God's son.

So Asher, different from the Ixim (new humans), rejects the current status quo created by Adam Kadmon and starts recruiting Ixim (comparable to Angels by name alone) to aid him in his search for Truth and ultimately rebellion against Adam's control. On the other side of the coin, we also have Asher eventually rejecting Kyrios (Christ), since he won't accept the idea that he just exists to be a vessel for Kyrios (serve the messiah) and that he's supposed to abandon his identity/individuality for the sake of God's plan (syzygy).
