Aptus is a bored literary fellow who also happens to be a demon. He narrates, with vaguely amused detachment, the failure and slow self-destruction of Simon, a young man under his influence. As a demon, Aptus can look directly into the minds of Simon and those around him, and lays out in exhaustive detail why each one's life will fail, cackling all the while.
