     I've finished this wonderful game many times.  The trick is to never 
use any essences you don't absolutely need.  For instance, one place 
where you might have used air essence you didn't need to was in the jail 
cell.  You might have made the flare spell when a tremor spell will 
accomplish the same effect, but without using up the air essence, which 
is the one you generally have the least of during the game and need the 
most at the end (fire and earth, since they are mined at the mill, are 
not a problem, so feel free to use those when needed instead of air).  
You might have to replay a portion of the game, but good luck anyway!
