“I am Essence, and by the blessings of Mother Nature, I shall slay you”-Essence

Mother Nature saved Essence for one reason, to destroy the Phantom Beast. Mother Nature had grown weary of his Power, and feared he could be a threat to all the Dimensions, and throw it all into turmoil.

But since the Phantom Beast has a curse where when he dies he is transported to another dimension, Essence would have to follow and keep the Phantom Beast down, again and again...

As seen in the Phantom Chronicles series.
