wakers
Those who rouse
Wakers are people who wake others or who are themselves awake.
The term appears in religious and poetic contexts for those who keep vigil or rouse others from sleep—literal or metaphorical: The wakers called the village to prayer at dawn.
In Irish tradition, wakers are those who attend a wake, keeping watch over the dead.
