mortally

In deadly fashion

Mortally means in a way that causes or relates to death.

A mortally wounded soldier will not survive.

By extension, mortally can mean extremely or intensely: mortally offended, mortally afraid.

The word carries the gravity of mortality—something mortally serious threatens existence itself.
