As the political agenda of the reigning emperor unfolds, Paul is enlightened about his own 'mystical powers'.The Fremen desert tribes begin to believe that Paul could be their long-prophesied redeemer and could lead their people to victory. Paul must now face his own destiny while battling the mighty forces pursuing him and restore the House of Atreides. 'Spice' is the greatest treasure in the empire, and he must ensure it is safely controlled to maintain order and balance.
