This is pure theory atm, but it sounds highly plausible regardless. My theory is that, due to the deaths of box the Six Ancestors and the Dark Goddess, the atmosphere of AW got saturated in the dark energies that the deceased Dark Goddess and Six Ancestors left behind in the AW (there is apparently some surviving non-Ancestor monsters that live as "second-class" citizens in the AW according to the very info on each AW-related Seraph) and as such they decided to make use of such an abundance of dark energy, with Raphaela being one of those results with her hidden Succubus-like dark form as demonstrated during the Ilias route of the Collab Scenario after Luka and co. let Raphaela take care of the Nightmare horde that attempted to halt their progress.
