Etymology[]

The Japanese name is possible translated to friend, brother, comrade, fellow, partner, commonly associated with horses; in Latin pālus means stick or pile. There is also the phrase to pale in one's face from shock or fear, and the "pale horse" is a biblical representation associated with death in the apocalypse. It can be related to pall, which is a cloth spread over a coffin, hearse, or tomb, and also refers to a dark cloud or covering of smoke, dust, or similar matter. Also, in ancient Roman religion, Pales was a deity of shepherds, flocks and livestock.
