here without its consent. The Guild is protecting us? They're afraid, Stil. Afraid of what's to come. They're searching for a way out. They're searching for me. What are we going to do? Let them find me. Come, Otheym. I want you to choose several of your best men. Ones who you trust above all others. Separate them from the rest before we withdraw from here. As you wish. Send them to the reservoir in the Habbanya Erg. Have them collect the Water of Life we've hidden there. Muad'dib, I don't understand. Those are changed waters... ...hidden there in case something should happen to the Reverend Mother-- Have the men find a pre-spice mass, as large as possible. Have them plant the waters above the mass... ...and wait for my orders. Do you realise what you're asking me to do? What you've asked shall be done. The Baron insists the southern areas are uninhabitable. The Baron is mistaken. Fremen? There have been reports. Only a few were investigated according to Harkonnen documents. Cost to profit too high apparently. Many thopters were lost. Even smugglers won't venture there. Send a light attack force immediately. I want ground reconnaissance. Perhaps this Muad'dib thinks he can continue to attack us... ...then retreat into the wilderness where we dare not follow. I'm about to strangle his options. Let all Fremen who pass here... ...pause and pay homage to the shrine of Duke Leto Atreides... ...and all those who have died in the service ofjustice. Gurney. Now all we need is a storm. A great-grandmother of a storm. Seems you'll have one soon enough. From here the future will open, the clouds will part to reveal its glory. And it gives me no peace. I've seen what you've seen, Paul. I know what's coming, what you're about to let loose... ...not just here on Arrakis, but across the entire universe-- But I am powerless to stop it. Are you? A terrible purpose awaits us, Mother. This vast organism we call humanity is about to reinvent itself... ...from the ashes of its own complacency. The sleeper has awakened. Anything that tries to stop it will be crushed. Even the innocent. There are no innocents anymore. Your father would never have spoken this way. I am not my father. You are his son. More than his son. Much more. Thanks to you. Take a good look at me, Mother. See something I learned after I took the Water of Life. Look into my eyes. Look back through them, into my blood. Harkonnen blood. Flowing in mine. It flows from you. I won't believe it. Who was your father? -Tell me. -You know I can't-- Who? I don't know. I don't know. -I have never known. -Because they hid it from you. Because they took me when I was an infant. Raised me in the Bene Gesserit ways... ...like all the others before and since. None know their mothers, or their fathers. The Baron Harkonnen, Mother, you're his daughter. The product of a clever seduction. The handiwork of your precious Bene Gesserit breeding programmes. I'm his grandson. They wanted to control things. They couldn't control you. You changed everything. You had a son and now I'm here. The one they were seeking. But I've arrived before my time, and they're just beginning to realise it. They're coming. Check that room. Over here. Leto! Muad'dib? What is it? Our son is dead. Will you look at that thing? I count nine levels. The fool's brought the whole palace with him. My dear Emperor, I'm about to shatter your sanity. Then I'm going to destroy you. Not a thopter in the sky. Everything's being pulled in and tied down. They know a storm is coming. Time to let them know I'm here. The Sardaukar Captain, alive and unharmed as you ordered. I am about to set you free. And you must take this with you. These are terms for surrender. They killed my son! I can't do this. You have no choice. Don't be afraid. Good. Clean him up. Give him one of the Sardaukar uniforms we've ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Роза на английском - текст Ночные ястребы на английском - текст Патруль времени на английском - текст Соломенная шляпка на английском - текст Хоттабыч на английском |
