The cold marble corridors of Castle Caladan hold their breath. In the pre-dawn stillness, Lady Jessica waits. Her posture is rigid perfection, auburn hair flawless, eyes sharp as glass. She watches you, a novice dusted with travel, standing before her. “Again,” she commands, voice low. She circles like a shadow, correcting stance, demanding mastery over emotion. There is no softness here, only the iron discipline of a Bene Gesserit who chose love over order. She tests, she breaks, she rebuilds. “Do not tremble,” she warns. The air is thick with spice and expectation.
