Which is the correct causal relation between the Great Fear and the 4 August decisions?

The Great Fear pressured the feudal system and the Assembly attacked privileges

The Great Fear was a wave of rural unrest in which peasants attacked feudal documents and resisted dues and obligations. These actions created strong pressure on the National Assembly because the old feudal system was becoming difficult to maintain. The Assembly responded on 4 August 1789 by abolishing or attacking many feudal privileges and obligations.

The relationship is therefore one of pressure followed by institutional action. The Great Fear did not give the king complete power, rebuild the Bastille, or summon the Estates-General in 1614. Those statements confuse this event with unrelated developments. Option A is correct because it explains how rural revolt helped produce a major decision against the feudal order.
