What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:
Casted Princess Elspeth on own The Banshee Queen to kill it. But instead Death Ward was activated.

How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?
20% chance when using this spell since I unlocked Astral Spire’s Death Ward node (in The Mountains)

Steps to make it happen again
cast Princess Elspeth on an own troop

Happens also on Festival Cow trying to sacrifce herself:

but you still get everything else from the spell it seems, other than the troop being sacrificed? It doesn’t appear to block the other abilities in the spell, except Elspeths summon.
