In
grasping
the
present
,
he
felt
for
the
first
time
the
massive
steadiness
of
time
’
s
movement
everywhere
complicated
by
shifting
currents
,
waves
,
surges
,
and
countersurges
,
like
surf
against
rocky
cliffs
.
It
gave
him
a
new
understanding
of
his
prescience
,
and
he
saw
the
source
of
blind
time
,
the
source
of
error
in
it
,
with
an
immediate
sensation
of
fear
.
The
prescience
,
he
realized
,
was
an
illumination
that
incorporated
the
limits
of
what
it
revealed
—
at
once
a
source
of
accuracy
and
meaningful
error
.
A
kind
of
Heisenberg
indeterminacy
intervened
:
the
expenditure
of
energy
that
revealed
what
he
saw
,
changed
what
he
saw
.
And
what
he
saw
was
a
time
nexus
within
this
cave
,
a
boiling
of
possibilities
focused
here
,
wherein
the
most
minute
action
—
the
wink
of
an
eye
,
a
careless
word
,
a
misplaced
grain
of
sand
—
moved
a
gigantic
lever
across
the
known
universe
.
He
saw
violence
with
the
outcome
subject
to
so
many
variables
that
his
slightest
movement
created
vast
shiftings
in
the
pattern
.
The
vision
made
him
want
to
freeze
into
immobility
,
but
this
,
too
,
was
action
with
its
consequences
.
The
countless
consequences
—
lines
fanned
out
from
this
cave
,
and
along
most
of
these
consequence
-
lines
he
saw
his
own
dead
body
with
blood
flowing
from
a
gaping
knife
wound
.

My
father
,
the
Padishah
Emperor
,
was
72
yet
looked
no
more
than
35
the
year
he
encompassed
the
death
of
Duke
Leto
and
gave
Arrakis
back
to
the
Harkonnens
.
He
seldom
appeared
in
public
wearing
other
than
a
Sardaukar
uniform
and
a
Burseg
’
s
black
helmet
with
the
Imperial
lion
in
gold
upon
its
crest
.
The
uniform
was
an
open
reminder
of
where
his
power
lay
.
He
was
not
always
that
blatant
,
though
.
When
he
wanted
,
he
could
radiate
charm
and
sincerity
,
but
I
often
wonder
in
these
later
days
if
anything
about
him
was
as
it
seemed
.
I
think
now
he
was
a
man
fighting
constantly
to
escape
the
bars
of
an
invisible
cage
.
You
must
remember
that
he
was
an
emperor
,
father
-
head
of
a
dynasty
that
reached
back
into
the
dimmest
history
.
But
we
denied
him
a
legal
son
.
Was
this
not
the
most
terrible
defeat
a
ruler
ever
suffered
?
My
mother
obeyed
her
Sister
Superiors
where
the
Lady
Jessica
disobeyed
.
Which
of
them
was
the
stronger
?
History
already
has
answered
.
