Mrhm, so you want a new fear involved, but not for the Enlightened to back out of the story, and to branch out the story? Okay then, how's this for a solution: Initiate a conflict over the gate between said new fear and the enlightened. If you want a Fear that's rarely used, go for The Unnamed Child, she'd hardly ever mentioned anymore and would be easy to include in a vlog- just find a younger actor and put some creepy makeup, add distortion and bingo.

Have the Unnamed child begin approaching and enthralling characters, including Gabriel possibly, in order to have them search for and open the gate, in competition with The Enlightened. It'd be interesting here to have a number of factions who all have different ideas of what the gate IS. The Enlightened think The Architect is trapped there and want to open it for him, maybe The Child thinks something else, maybe Gabriel has another idea, Capper/Alex has another, and keep it vague as to which is true. Have The Child start working towards, with Gabriel's help, beating the enlightened to opening the gate, to clues as to how to accomplish this etcetera, whilst gabriel has growing doubts as to whether or not this is the right thing, developing his own ideas at to why this would be a bad thing contrary to The Child OR the Enlightened's grand vision- but being under The Childs thrall, continuing to work for her anyway until the climax, when the gate is about to be opened, he breaks free, acts of his own will and stops both factions from opening it.

Thoughts?
