Besides the crevices in the mire that served as hiding spots for ghostfires, this stretch of swamp was also littered with the bones of many unidentifiable beasts.
It drew near a bone that looked like a femur. The moment the yellow ghostfire approached, the signs of age and decay on the leg bone, caused by its long immersion in the swamp, unexpectedly vanished completely.
It transformed into a slender, flawlessly white leg bone. The bone was long and thin with a uniform density, but it was riddled with breaks and flaws left by the decay.
A moment later, it was burned to ash by the ghostfire's core flame.
But from within the ash, an incredibly faint wisp of Life Force slipped out and shot directly into its core.
These beings subsisted on Death Energy, and Life Force was its antithesis. Contact with it would reduce their Death Energy, which meant a decrease in their power.
