I didn't know that usage of the word prior.
noun: prior; plural noun: priors
a man who is head of a house or group of houses of certain religious orders.
"the English Reformation removed powerful abbots and priors from their seats"
the man next in rank below an abbot.
the head of a house of friars.

He needed 6 guesses today, so that made me start with PIOUS to knock out the less common vowels. The P was in the correct spot, so I guessed PEACH, which meant the answer was P_ACE.

I was really thrown off by ETHER. I kept thinking it went with NET to refer to cyberspace. However, I also thought NET might belong to a group about things that can divide or cover, like curtain.

I'll have to remember the anagram thing. I bet it comes up again.
