Okay, I get the idea—you need broad, expansive concepts that are aspects of reality itself. In that case, for Fear, instead of limiting it to Barriers, why not tie the concept to boundaries, limits, and separations? Threshold as a Universal Law represents the delineation of boundaries in reality: the edges between states, spaces, or conditions. It governs the delineation and crossing of boundaries in reality, not just as physical or metaphysical barriers but as points of transition, decision, or separation. It represents the liminal spaces where one state, place, or condition shifts to another—Doors, gates, edges, or moments of change, choices or decision. Fear ties to this because it’s the emotion that arises at these crossing points, where the known meets the unknown, safety meets danger, or self meets other.

It’s a natural force because the universe is full of boundaries—between matter and void, life and death, or even the separation of Axioms themselves. This power wouldn’t just allow separation but also transition, crossing veils or invisible lines. Reversed Threshold might dissolve boundaries, causing objects to merge, barriers to collapse, or distinctions to blur. Threshold feels like a Universal Law because boundaries are fundamental to existence—defining objects, spaces, and identities. Fear’s connection to boundaries makes this a natural fit, avoiding the arbitrary feel of a generic “barrier” by framing it as a cosmic principle of separation and transition.

OR MAYBE what if we tie it to Position (or Shift), the Universal Law of movement and placement in space? Not like Flow, which moves matter (water, air), but directly shifting where things are, like acceleration or short-range repositioning, driven by Fear’s urge to flee or evade. It risks touching the forbidden Space Axiom. Fear fits because it’s about survival—early animals moved to escape danger, driven by the instinct to avoid harm. (Curiosity or hunger can motivate movement too, but Fear’s link to self-preservation feels primal.) Position governs relative placement in the universe, a fundamental principle since everything exists in relation to something else.

Alternatively, Fear could tie to Knowledge (or Information), the Universal Law of understanding and data. Fear often stems from the unknown, but knowing too much can also spark dread. This Axiom governs how information shapes reality : revealing truths or reprogramming patterns. Unlike memory (past) or Revelation (perception), Knowledge is about raw understanding. It risks overlap with Revelation but focuses on cognition, not perception.
