and those who pray for dew at the desert's edge...
Who: Leto Atreides 2 (goldenpathredux) and Haseo (reversedarkness)
What: Leto considers Aegis a threat. Haseo considers her a friend. They settle their dispute the Fremen way.
When: Wednesday, early evening
Where: a clearing at the foothills of the mountains
Leto sat in meditation at the foothills, blended into the scrub and grey rock, atop a boulder. He'd selected a site not far from the village, open to the sun yet still sorrounded by looming peaks, a rough landscape covered in shifting gravel, almost lunar.
When he saw the shorter, angry form of Haseo approaching from the direction of the village, he raised his crysknife from its sheath.
The stronger ideology would triumph here because it was believed in more. His father had taught that lesson to the Sardaukar at Arrakeen.
He was confident he would teach it here.
"May thy knife chip and shatter!" He called. Of course, Haseo wasn't actually carrying a knife. In fact his weapons seemingly dwarfed Leto's. But that wasn't the point. The point was that it was said, that the Fremen tradition was preserved here.
