It means people like Eugene Greenhilt, who thought conducting dangerous magic experiments near an unsupervised toddler was just fine.
It means people like Bozzok, who thought paying extra to remove all the safety measures meant to control a golem in order to make said golem more powerful was a great idea that couldn't go wrong.
It means people like Geoff, who thought suffering years of imprisonment and torture and forcing his brother-in-law to suffer alongside him was worth it so long as his son could have a better life.
It means people like the Hobgoblin who pushed Redcloak out of the boulder's way during the Azure City siege, who thought nothing of sacrificing his life so long as his leader survived.
It means people like Therkla, who thought Kubota was worth fighting to keep alive until the moment he poisoned her.
It means people like Haerta Bloodsoak, who thought creating a Epic spell that would kill anyone related to the target, and anyone related to anyone related to the target, was a worthwhile use of her time and ressources.
It means people like Commander Gin-Jun, who would happily kill children so long as it gives him the "glorious war" he wants.
It means people like Nale, who would happily kill children just to indicate where his latest scheme is to his actual targets of his self-acknowledged irrational hatred.

If all of those people knew about the entity who even the gods are scared off but who *can* be affected by badass enough mortals?
You're giving them just enough knowledge so they can harm themselves and others.
