He was my duke's most trusted warrior. He died once, saving Muad'Dib's life... and mine. But he is Alia's husband. He is still Atreides. It is my daughter who is not. We don't have much time. What about these Fedaykin who have helped me? Alia has issued a warrant against them. - Crimes against the Imperium. - Of course she has. Stilgar has offered sanctuary if they can make it to Tabr. Then that is what you will do. When the imperial agents find this place... there must be nothing left but the wind howling through the rocks. As the Holy Mother commands. May Shai Hulud clear the path before you. Is it true about my grandchildren, Duncan? You would not have come if you didn't believe it, milady. Stilgar suspects they may have seen this crisis coming. He fears they've gone into the desert. I made many mistakes with my daughter, Duncan. There have been many mistakes, milady. And I repeated most of them. She will not survive the trial of abomination. This is not the course for the Sietch Tabr, is it? No, milady, it is not. Are you going to tell me where you're taking me? Somewhere even Alia won't think to look for us. I don't think they saw us. I don't think they were looking for us. We don't have much time. We have to make those rocks before sunset. Search parties will be certain to come out this far now. - That's not a worm. - But an animal. More than one. It's closer now. Much closer. Move! - There's a cave up there. - Run. Get in!History is written on the sands of Arrakis... where rebellion and civil war continue to breed... fed by Alia's brutal tyranny and repression... as she sinks deeper into the abomination of her own ghosts... unable to recognize the forces conspiring against her... unaware of the whirlwind... sweeping towards her across the desert. Well... who's gonna explain this to me? Who's gonna tell me why I have rioting in my streets... why my name is being used as a curse? You simple fools. The royal twins are missing from Sietch Tabr. Lady Jessica has been abducted off-world. Rebel alliances are being formed by tribes to the south. And now we have anarchy in the streets of Arakeen! You are to blame. Go. Perhaps you should rest, milady. It's difficult to think clearly when one is exhausted by stress. Leave me. I'm fine. Such a pity, eh? Why did you send that lovely boy away? I'm not in the mood to indulge your lurid perversions tonight. Are they mine or simply yours in disguise? After all, I'm only enjoying... what you started. Is that so? Don't forget, child. I'm not really here. I'm simply the manifestation... of what you already are. Go away! Go away! Who else knows they are requesting sanctuary here? The Spacing Guild, of course. They would provide transport with Idaho's bribes. The Bene Gesserit will surely be informed, if they don't know already. Then Alia will be forced to implicate us in this adventure. She'll have to make it appear as if we arranged the whole thing. We should refuse them safe harbor... return them to Arrakis and wash our hands of the entire matter. On the contrary, Tyek. Perhaps we should think of Lady Jessica's visit... as an endowment, not a threat. The woman has many talents, I've read. Perhaps they could be of some use to us. You mean to you. I see no reason why I shouldn't continue my education by all means necessary. Any woman who can seduce Duke Leto Atreides... and a planet of desert Fremen is not to be trifled with. Are you suggesting she might try to seduce me? Don't play the fool, Farad'n. She would be a dangerous guest. But... a grateful one. He may have a point. May the wind strip the flesh from your bones. May Shai-Hulud clear the path before you. Sachar-Nabai. When we meet again. My skin is not my own. The Golden Path is dangerous, Son. It's the choice I couldn't take... the desert storm that cannot be stopped. You will become
