Fear spell ... quick question

[AstroCat]

If a party member has fear cast on them and fails their save do the flee immediately (during the casters turn) or wait till it is their turn and then flee? This has come up many times and we want the final answer on which way is correct.

Thanks!

On their turn. The spell doesn't change their initiative.
