“
Formidable

”
the
Duke
murmured
,
and
Paul
saw
the
proud
smile
on
his
father
’
s
face
.
The
smile
shocked
Paul
:
it
had
a
skull
look
on
the
Duke
’
s
narrow
features
.
Paul
closed
his
eyes
,
feeling
the
terrible
purpose
reawaken
within
him
.
Perhaps
being
a
Mentat
is
terrible
purpose
,
he
thought
.
But
even
as
he
focused
on
this
thought
,
his
new
awareness
denied
it
.

The

ALL
AROUND
the
Lady
Jessica
—
piled
in
corners
of
the
Arrakeen
great
hall
,
mounded
in
the
open
spaces
—
stood
the
packaged
freight
of
their
lives
:
boxes
,
trunks
,
cartons
,
cases
—
some
partly
unpacked
.
She
could
hear
the
cargo
handlers
from
the
Guild
shuttle
depositing
another
load
in
the
entry
.
Jessica
stood
in
the
center
of
the
hall
.
She
moved
in
a
slow
turn
,
looking
up
and
around
at
shadowed
carvings
,
crannies
and
deeply
recessed
windows
.
This
giant
anachronism
of
a
room
reminded
her
of
the
Sisters
’
Hall
at
her
Bene
Gesserit
school
.
But
at
the
school
the
effect
had
been
of
warmth
.
Here
,
all
was
bleak
stone
.
Some
architect
had
reached
far
back
into
history
for
these
buttressed
walls
and
dark
hangings
,
she
thought
.
The
arched
ceiling
stood
two
stories
above
her
with
great
crossbeams
she
felt
sure
had
been
shipped
here
to
Arrakis
across
space
at
monstrous
cost
.
No
planet
of
this
system
grew
trees
to
make
such
beams
—
unless
the
beams
were
imitation
wood
.
