![]() The Tleilaxu have altered the ghola to bring its physical reflexes up to modern standards. ![]() ![]() The Bene Gesserit intends to use a Tleilaxu-provided Duncan Idaho ghola to gain control of this sandrider, and the religious forces of humanity who they know will ultimately worship her. On Rakis, a girl called Sheeana has been discovered who can control the giant worms. The most powerful of these forces are the Honored Matres, a violent society of women bred and trained for combat and the sexual control of men. However, people from the Scattering are returning with their own peculiar powers. With Leto II's death, a very complex economic system built on spice collapsed, resulting in trillions of people leaving known space in the great Scattering.Ī new civilization has risen, with three dominant powers: the Ixians, whose no-ships are capable of piloting between the stars and are invisible to outside detection the Bene Tleilax, who have learned to manufacture spice in their axlotl tanks and have created a new breed of Face Dancers and the Bene Gesserit, a matriarchal order of subtle political manipulators who possess superhuman abilities. Sandworms have reappeared on Arrakis (now called Rakis), each containing a fragment of the God Emperor's consciousness, and have renewed the flow of the all-important spice melange to the galaxy. Much has changed in the millennium and a half since the death of the God Emperor. This article is based largely on the Wikipedia article on Heretics of Dune. ![]()
