Fear drove the machinery of existence with more efficiency than any other force.
It was fear, not love or hate, that shaped the fundamental patterns of the Star Seas.
Fear of loss that made beings grasp for power. Fear of insignificance that drove them to leave marks upon reality.
Fear of death that pushed civilizations to transcend their limitations. Fear was the invisible architect drawing blueprints in the shadows of consciousness.
For those knowledgeable about the deep histories, it was said that fear and jealousy drove the first betrayal- three brothers in arms, countless years ago, torn apart over one woman.
Not love that destroyed their bond, but fear of losing, fear of being second, fear of watching another possess what they desired. That primordial betrayal set patterns that would echo through eons!
