    There were prob already many descendants of Adam and Eve in the earth, some 100 or so years after the Creation. For Cain, "No peace for the wicked" (Isa 57:20). He was afraid of poss kinsmen/redeemers who would try to kill him. Cain's act set a precedent that others might follows. Cain's fate: a type of Israel's punishment of scattering, after they killed Christ.
