[/size][/font][/color][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]Following the kidnap of [/size][/font][/color][url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Captain_Sisay"]Captain Sisay[/url][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3], the [/size][/font][/color][url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Weatherlight_Crew"][i]Weatherlight[/i] Crew[/url][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3] required a mage to fix the coordinates of [/size][/font][/color][url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Rath"]Rath[/url][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3] into the planeshifting [/size][/font][/color][url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Powerstone"]powerstone[/url][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]. That mage being Ertai, on Barrin's Sugestion. [/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]After arriving in Rath, [/size][/font][/color][i]Weatherlight[/i][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]‘s planeshifting engine was damaged in battle with the [/size][/font][/color][i][url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Predator"]Predator[/url][/i][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]. Ertai therefore volunteered to keep the standing planar portal they found open as an escape route. While trying to open the portal, Ertai was contacted by [/size][/font][/color][url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/index.php?title=Lyna&action=edit&redlink=1"]Lyna[/url][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3], who offered to aid his rituals in exchange for letting the [/size][/font][/color][url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Soltari"]Soltari[/url][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3] use the portal as well. Ertai agreed and they successfully opened the portal. However, the [/size][/font][/color][i]Weatherlight[/i][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3] was being hotly pursued by [/size][/font][/color][i]Predator[/i][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3] as it fled and so was forced to leave Ertai behind.[/size][/font][/color][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]
After [i]Weatherlight[/i] abandoned him, Ertai was captured by [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Greven"]Greven [i]il[/i]-Vec[/url] and taken back to [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/The_Stronghold"]the Stronghold[/url]. He became an unexpected dark horse candidate in the contest to replace [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Volrath"]Volrath[/url] as [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Evincar"]Evincar[/url], largely because of his romantic relationship with [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Belbe"]Belbe[/url].[/size][/font][/color]

This gave Ertai no hope of escape, so he chose to submit to the new evincar and was thus transformed into Crovax's loyal lapdog as [url="http://www.magiccards.info/autocard.php?card=Ertai,%20the%20Corrupted"]Ertai, the Corrupted[/url].
Embittered by his abandonment by the [i]Weatherlight[/i] crew and by Belbe's death, he regarded Gerrard and company as personal enemies. After the [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Rathi_Overlay"]Rathi Overlay[/url], Ertai accompanied [i]Predator[/i] into battle with[i]Weatherlight[/i], where he captured [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Gerrard"]Gerrard[/url] (and, accidentally, [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Squee"]Squee[/url]) and teleported them into the Stronghold. After Squee was given the ability to resurrect, Ertai delighted in killing him over and over again, until finally Squee, quite by accident, overloaded the [url="http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Phyrexia"]Phyrexian[/url] healing device he was using, killing him in the explosion.
