Elderspell
The Elderspell is a spell that Nicol Bolas uses during the War of the Spark to harvest planeswalker's sparks. It would grant him "ultimate power" and godhood.[1]
Bolas cast the Elderspell to grow his own power by absorbing the sparks, right after the invasion of Ravnica by the Dreadhorde. The spark harvesting, as performed by the Eternals, was lethal.[2][3] All the moisture in the victim's body was drained.
The effect of the Elderspell were reversed when the God-Eternal Bontu bit Bolas, claiming all the sparks (including Bolas' own.) After this, Bontu exploded in shards.[4]
