Primal Cycle of Fear

Steel Realms

The Primal Cycle of Fear is a Steel Realms Timeline Event; recorded knowledge. The existence of the cycle is known only to a few, knowledge of it is rare. The cycle is core to events in the current times, but runs back for thousands of years.

Fear makes people feel their own mortality, and in turn sense eternity. Fear is sweet. Fear is sustenance. Fear is etched in blood. Fear lurks behind every unknown, and begets terror at every decision. Terror is the harbinger of madness.
