Although Loimos tended to mostly state the benefits of conquering realms as being, training for the minor lords as leaders and also the addition of more potential ways of power and things such as the black fog, there was perhaps even a greater point of interest amongst all of it…
As death progressed, life pushed back harder, thus slowing the empire's expansion, now that they conquered a second continent, that gruellingly slow progress had become a near stop, advancing by pushing the miasma forward would make even a few dozen of meters take years to reach.
Of course, there was a solution to this problem, although life pushed back against the miasma, there was a way to force a large area to fall under death's domain, life existed in the air, but it mostly existed within beings, the fauna and flora, as such, when they hunted down livings and converted them to undeath, the life in the immediate area would weaken.
