Project Simulated Evolution of Dlateequ

The question has come up about why the special purpose ten is evil.  Well, it actually goes back to the inception of Project SED when we decided to create a civilization for the language.  What followed was my creation of a map and two short stories.

The history of the Dlateequ number system is this:

Long ago there were ten gods and for this there were ten numbers (or rather, the number base was 10).  However, at some point the tenth god became evil.  As a result the tenth god was rejected by... well, everyone, gods and humans alike and was banished to the Dark Mare's Gore.  As a result of the tenth god being rejected, the number system went from 10 to 9.  However the "special" ten has remained as a sign of evil.
