Prologue
An angered being walked into his master's lair.

"I failed, my Lord, in picking the perfect body for my spirit", Anger said, annoyed."I needed to fight. This body was the only dead body around."

"It was only one mistake....one that will cling to you forrever, like your cursed brother's kraata." The deep, unnerving voice of Evil was speaking of Teridax, the being who ruled the land.

"Unlike you, my Lord, I cannot come out of this cursed shell from Karzahni." He was very, very annoyed at his mistake, a curse slipped from his mouth, too late.

"You know what the punishment is for cursing in front of The Evil," The Dark Lord of Evil said, as calm as he had been talking before,"after you complete the punishment, come back to me. I will have thought of a punishment for your failure."

"I understand," Anger said, trying to keep the fear out of his voice, which was close to breaking,"I will be back in one half of an hour."

"No."

"May I beg your pardon, my Lord?"

"An hour in the Alterers", Evil said,"No less". The fire from Anger's blade and claw dimmed drastically, all red on Anger's body paled.

"Yes, my Lord," Anger said, his voice breaking,"I will be back in one hour." He sobbed.

The Alterers cause torture for Anger. Only his imortality will keep him alive.
