Whilst that is a very sanguine view, the realization that one is the ant is still pretty difficult for many people and the cosmic sizes and spans of time have their own special horror for I think most people even today, and even if it's not scary in the way some stuff is. Honestly I don't think any form of horror works on everyone. I love gothic horror's vibe but I find it completely in-scary, even a bit funny, and the more gothic it gets the funnier it gets. Whereas body horror can be so bad I can't handle it. And jump scare stuff is often more annoying than scary. But some slasher movies work for me, and ghost stuff often does (despite being a non believer basically). So I guess I'm saying we can't expect any genre to work for everyone.
Ants are incapable of realising they are ants.
Taking your own analogies literally is pretty funny lol.
would "The blinding night, the hell space where our science and reason failed."work?
No. That's just another way of saying "it's too dark to see anything".
The Far Realm is so alien that you go insane if you see it. If it's reduced to 'just' a scary adventure site, the entire concept is pretty much defenestrated. Even in 4e when they wanted to make every plane into an explorable zone they didn't touch the Far Realm in order to keep the fundamental premise of the place intact.
perhaps a area tainted with it then?
I'd like something like this. And would be even happier if I could use it for Xoriat too.
