Pray, lend thine ears to the reflections of this humble scribe, who delves into the intricate tapestrie of succubi and incubi! While it is oft believed that these enchanting fiends serve as mere demons of desire, verily, they are more accurately delineated as demons of <span class="mu-s">experience</span> and profound-moste <span class="mu-s">perception</span>. They embody not solely hedonistick selfe-indulgence, but also the longings of ambition and the deep-rooted fears which nestle within the mortal soul.
Indeed, the traits that define these beings (for 'creatures' is too imprecise and too <span class="mu-s">material</span> a word) are few and rather abstract; forsooth, their manifestations are shaped not merely by their own inclinations, but by the beliefs and wishes, and terrors also, of those who encounter them and the manner in which they perceiveth the Hellish thinges.
Thus, let it be acknowledged that a succubus or incubus taketh on forms dictated by the desires or terrors of those who gaze upon them. In truth, they become whatever layeth in the eye and minde of the beholder—be it an embodiment of fervent longing or a shadow of chilling dread.
A succubus or incubus is <span class="mu-s">whatever you believeth it to be</span>
