The Eight Fears of Humanity

The Eight Fears of Humanity

By Wyrmhero

The First Fear was Death.

The transition from living to nonliving, from animate to inanimate, from certainty to uncertainty, from living, to dead.

The Second Fear was of the Unknown.

That which was the uncertain, the unpredictable, the different. Not knowing what to do, and when to do it.

The Third Fear was of Nature.

Things, which deviated from the human's perfect form, with two arms, two legs, a torso and a head. This was incomprehensible and strange.

The Fourth Fear was of Differences.

The idea of something different from yourself; changes that made something better than you, made something worse in your eyes.

The Fifth Fear was of Others.

All humans are different, and so you hated them. They were better than you in some way, a way in which they were different. They hated you too, for hating them. And then you drove them away.

The Sixth Fear was of Loneliness.

After driving all others away, you wanted them back to stay sane. And so, when you were let back with your family, you clung to them, never letting them go.

The Seventh Fear was of Rejection.

You fear to be alone, and therefore, fear to be rejected to stop you feeling alone. And thus, you fear others hating you for trying to keep them around.

And the Eight Fear was of the Self.

Because humanity needs something to fear.
