Alternate universe shenanigans. Is how it looks to me. Especially given bene stuff is not limited to women. Or the order. Somehow.

It’s an alternate timeline where Jessica had a daughter instead of a son and Leto defeated the Harkoenens during their invasion, so Leto rules over Arrakis for the indefinite future, leaving space in the story for fetch quests and base building. Apparently the fremen disappeared too, so you have to solve the mystery.

this is what the bene wanted. a daughter Atreides to mate with Feyd Rutha Harkonnen - but Jessica wanted to satisfy Leto.

and Leto defeated the Harkoenens during their invasion, so Leto rules over Arrakis for the indefinite future, leaving space in the story for fetch quests and base building.

uhhh so this is an entirely different fiction huh

Apparently the firemen disappeared too, so you have to solve the mystery.

I suspect you mean fremen…

why even bother licensing the story if they’re determined to change everything?

how strange
