    Summary

    “I succumbed to the lure of the oracle, he thought.
    And he sensed that succumbing to this lure might be to fix himself upon a single-track life. Could it be, he wondered, that the oracle didn't tell the future? Could it be that the oracle made the future?”
    ― Frank Herbert, Dune Messiah

    Ten years after losing Paul Atreides to Giedi Prime, Duke Leto accepts the invitation he never expected to receive: to attend the Hraknir of the children of Paul and Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen.
    He expected to find a prison. A hostage. Perhaps a broken son, perhaps a forced consort, perhaps children raised by the enemy and still young enough to be saved in some way.
    But Giedi Prime is not merely a prison. Paul is not merely a hostage. Feyd-Rautha is not merely the monster Caladan remembers. And their children are not merely Harkonnen children dressed for a barbaric rite.
    Among artificial gardens, blood rites, games of power, Meishu protocols, five complete Kwisatz Haderachs, and a family too impossible to reduce to scandal, the Atreides discover that ten years preserve no one intact.
    Paul lived.
    Feyd built a house around him.

    Summary

    Baron Vladimir Harkonnen cited an ancient law that stated due to the rarity of omegas, an eligible alpha—meaning unmarried, unmated, and of the same social class as their intended—had the right to court an eligible omega. This meant that his nephew, the na-Baron Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen, had the right to Paul's attention despite the official and long-standing enmity between House Atreides and House Harkonnen.

    The Landsraad discussed it among themselves with all the gravity of a trade dispute or military action.

    The alpha had the right, they decided.

    Paul's father, in a dark rage and after intense consultation with his Mentat Thufir Hawat, had answered with another ancient law: the alpha would be muzzled.
