The name (Malak) sound very much like (مَلَك Angel) & (مَلِك King) in Arabic
I've noticed this for a while and only recently googled it and was surprised when i found no mention on the web of this ironic resemblance

in the game they pronounce (Malak) as in (Malek) but if pronounced (Malak) it's actually sound very much like مَلَك which means Angel in Arabic (google will translate it as king since it can't read Arabic diacritics very well) but the Arabic pronunciation is right if you want to check it out

(Malak) also sound like مَلِك which means king

and this is a more appropriate meaning

just wanted to share this, i don't know if it was intentional or not but i think it is, its too ironic to be a coincidence in case they were going for the first resemblance mentioned, and too appropriate if they went for the second
