Green checked the Graveyard's Psychic Energy balance and stared in disbelief. More than two million had dwindled to just over eight hundred thousand. Completing the Mechanical Spark had consumed over 1.2 million Psychic Energy!

A Marine Armor Skeleton Soldier was already a combination of Undead and Mecha, with most of its body made of machinery. Transforming it therefore placed little strain on the Mechanical Spark.
