In Defence of the Primal of Ignorance

== The Following is an excerpt from the Journal of Ontological Studies, issue 504, published in 901 AoVL ==
The force called
“Ignorance” also governs things such as “instinct” and
“impulse.” Ignorance is the primal aspect of thoughtless, basic,
reactive actions such as the drive to mate regardless of consequences
and the need to fight or flee from an unknown threat. It is also,
surprisingly, one of the Primals which aid in the production of art
and performance of intense physical tasks. The Wise are constantly
monitoring, so very, very aware of everything outside and
within themselves. One in the full grips of “Ignorance” has
stopped seeking outside answers, stopped second-guessing, and acts
from the heart. For an animal, this means the endless cycle of
fuck-kill-eat takes over. For a sentient being, this can mean they
fall into the primal cycles of nature like a beast, or that they can
finally turn off self-doubt and outside distraction in order to
accomplish nigh impossible goals. Whether the person is making a
passionate plea to be heard by the unfeeling, performing a
mesmerizingly graceful dance, or simply jumping a chasm just ahead of
a massive gout of dragonfire, sometimes one has to turn off doubt,
stop looking for the best solution, and just let go.
