"Hierarchy." It means, in this context a social, or religious, structure based on a ruling class, and various subserviant classes. In the context of the Covenant, as I understand it, the hierarchy would go [prophet-brute-elite-hunter-jackal-grunt]. "Hierarchy" can also be used to describe only the ruling portion of such a system, though it is more common to hear it used in reference to the entire system.
"Arkey," however, has no known definition.
