This artefact, like Irinnile herself, is your inheritance—tools used by your mother as a Reptilian Infiltrator, to great effect. In theory, the diadem should protect your mind and spirit against the demon, allowing you to avoid corruption.
In theory…
“Let us do as you have proposed,” you agree.
Irinnile grins a too-wide grin, and waggles Yosef’s eyebrows. Ooo, we’re gonna’ do it? Let me just… Settle in, then…”
As you sit cross-legged upon the floor in your usual meditative position, you find your focus disrupted by a heavy weight plopping into your lap. You open your eyes to find a twisted and twisting column of flesh and bone astride you, vaguely the shape of a human. You recoil slightly, nearly leaping to your feet, but in stops and starts the lumpy, tumorous mass shrinks and shifts into familiar proportions: the ‘true’ form of Irinnile, curvaceous and feminine, horned and hooved, tattooed with green-black line-art of violent and lascivious, she sheds Yosef’s ill-fitting attire, revealing bare breasts, and presses against you, sliding hands around your neck and shoulders and though your hair. Blazing yellow eyes regard you; breath as hot as the winds in Hell feel as if they will ignite your skin with pure experiential sensation where it washes over you.
Only when Irinnile works this dark magic, it seems, can your <appetite> stir within paining you—or, at least, with such pleasurable desire as to drown out the pain.
With trembling hand, you reach up. Irinnile opens her mouth invitingly, for you to insert a finger, but instead to clasp your diadem and squeeze your eyes shut until the disorienting flood of physical and emotional <hunger> pass.
“Party pooper,” the succubus complains.
You ignore her until, with a sigh, Irinnile stops her grinding upon your lap and simply settles upon you. You take a deep breath, calming yourself still more fully. You still mind, body, soul. You focus upon the essence of the True Dragon within—long your ‘north star’ to guide you to a place of spiritual introspection.
