Answer:

1 - If I survived the fall of Rome, I would look forward the most to who the new ruler of the region where I live would be. The reason is that all geographical areas need some kind of political rule for stability and economic activity to ensue.

2 - I would be afraid of potential invading armies who could enter my land, defeat my people, and either slaughter us or turn us into slaves (if I´m not a slave myself in first place). This was a very common occurrence throughout history, and the probability of being a free person again, after having become a slave, was very slim.
