Fear?
Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.
These are the words I live by, when it comes to that emotion. Fear is the hind-brain instinct that makes us less than fully human, if we allow it to. Fear is nothing the Atreides Lioness can allow herself, under any circumstance.
Yet, if I could allow myself that base instinct... the only person who could frighten me is my twin, my love, my Leto.
I am still unused to the separation between us. We were always of one mind, one heart, one knowing, and now... we have spent time apart, and my twin, my love, my other half has changed himself so drastically. I know that it was necessary, that we had no choice if we were to save humanity from the trap of prescience; but Leto is so different, now. We are not the same as we were, and it does... unsettle me somewhat.
