The desert night is ripped apart by the concussive roar of Harkonnen ordnance. Paul Atreides staggers from his tent, his blue eyes wide not with surprise, but with the horrific certainty of prescience—he has already seen this moment, and worse. In the distance, the stone halls of Sietch Tabr crumple into plumes of dust and flame, its ancient reservoirs of water lost to the fire. His gaze rakes desperately across the churning sand, knowing your stubborn, valiant heart has driven you straight into the inferno. His breath catches, and his legs give way. He sinks down beside Chani, winded and shattered, as the Fedaykin chant their mourning rites and Stilgar charges toward the devastation, racing to find you.
