"In the heart of the desert, a great city rose up... It was built on the site of a ancient human city, and it was planned to be the most beautiful and majestic city in the world. But it didn't live up to expectations. The city was empty and dark. The people were lost and starvation had claimed them. The city was destroyed, but it was not destroyed in vain. It was said that the city would be revived and would be the mightiest and most powerful city of all time. And it was."
The Reverend Mother of the Bene Gesserit
