"Those who are wise in matters of the Demon Planes may claim that they know the natures of those who dwell therein; yet when one consults The Book of Presences, The Scroll of Bringing Forth the Unnameable, or indeed any of the other writings of the masters of the past, one is struck by the many and diverse descriptions of the Demon Prince of the land of Qélem, great Lord Rü'ütlánesh. It is known that this mighty Prince rules the Southwest Quadrant of the Demon Planes, that he [the manuscript uses the Engsvanyáli pronoun for "he" throughout, yet adds both the determinative ideographs for "female" and for "neuter" --?], that he comes forth in reply to those who summon him with appropriate litanies and sacrifices, and that he gives many boons, though of perverse sorts. Yet no one can speak with authority of his form, nor can one say what is this Demon's true nature. The rune by which this Prince is known includes elements of sensuality and alliance with the principles of the Emerald Ladies [probably the Goddess Dlamélish and her Cohort, Lady Hriháyal], although devotees of other Deities (including some of the more daring of the priests of the Lords of Stability) may call upon him.
