The inmates of the Prison Infernal are more complex than the mortal mind can bear. Each Yozi is a singular, primordial being, but the things we would recognize as parts of the whole — heart, mind, soul — are, for them, different creatures, with sapience all their own: the Demons of the Adamant Circle.
These third-circle demons, themselves, have souls made up of seven distinct Demons of the Sapphire Circle, who represent their progenitors' ability to communicate, define, express, gratify, protect, reflect, and understand their own essential natures.
Taken as a whole, the fallen Primordials, from Yozi on down to second-circle demons, are perhaps best thought of not as individuals but as kingdoms entire: king, nobles, ministers, and clergy are all separate beings, with their own dominion, but all are part of a greater whole; each works towards their own selfish ends, yet bows knee to some common goal.
By this understanding, the Demons of the Emerald Circle are soldiers and peasants within the kingdoms of hell; they own no dominions but are part of them, ruled by them, owned by them. First-circle demons are not component souls of any greater being, but species of creatures spawned by their betters, created to serve.

In another lifetime, the Malfeas-that-was lorded over the Primordials as tyrant and king, and his souls still represent those qualities of rulership; unblinking power, noblesse oblige, and pride.

The Hierarchies of the Rest
The other Yozis are no less terrible than their kin, only less storied by sages and savants, for they form mere portions of the prison, not its very roots.
