Hold!The Attackers stop advancing. Stilgar walks out into the
moonlight to face Paul. Paul meets his eyes.
PAUL
I was there when you came to my
father’s council. With Duncan
Idaho. You know me.Stilgar studies his face in the moonlight, and nods.
STILGAR
This is the Duke’s son.One of the four attackers, a rangy wolf of a man with a
bristling beard, snarls in answer. This is JAMIS.
JAMIS *
Why are you waiting? We need their *
water. *STILGAR *
This is the boy I told you about. *
The chosen one. We can’t touch him. *FEMEN WOMAN (NAME?) *
How can he be the Lisan Al Gaïb? *FREMEN MAN *
He hasn’t proven himself. *JAMIS *
They are weaklings! *STILGAR *
Jamis, hold. That was a brave *
crossing they made in the path of *
Shai Hulud. He does not speak or *
act like a weakling. Nor did his *
father. *JAMIS *
My thumper saved his life. Come to *
your senses, Stilgar. He’s not the *
one. *JESSICA
We have powerful friends. If you
help us get offworld, to Caladan --
you’ll be well rewarded.Salmon Rev. (06/19/2020) 103.
