Savior of the Masses

Although Odessa claimed they only needed to last for ten minutes before reinforcements arrived, over fifteen minutes had elapsed, and the battlefield had already grown into a gruesome sight. Despite Odessa healing the wounded as much as she could, running her Essence reserves dry, over thirty percent of her battalion perished at the hands of the Terrors.

Furthermore, the thinning Death Essence recovered its vigor with each death to make matters worse. It even surpassed its initial density due to the sheer number of fallen Zul Commanders and sometimes Generals. Depending on the remaining Essence within the victim, a considerable amount of Death Essence could be converted from the body.
