I think I've nailed it in your case. You seem to think that fear and
dispair are so seperate. When you are cold, wet, tired, hungry, and
have Death and God-knows-what-else around the next corner, it's hard to
bolster your courage, and thus *reduce* fear levels. Truely, this is
what sets the difference between the average person, and our heroes. At
least, IMO.
