Summary
Paul Muad'Dib Atreides and Irulan of the House Corrino marry at the end of Dune Part II shortly after Chani leaves. Paul ascends to the throne of the Known Universe while the holy war engulfs humanity. However, like in the book, he spent 3 years with the Fremen and has truly become one of them. What Paul wants above all is the love of his life back, which is exactly what the man worshipped as a god cannot have, as Chani moves on with someone else and Paul is heartbroken as a result. Pressured by Jessica, suffocated by imperial politics, torn between his love for Chani and his grief at losing her, haunted by the consequences of his actions, Paul descends deeper into his own darkness, threatening to drag Irulan, who has a secret of her own, down with him. Irulan might be the nominal prisoner but is any of them truly free? And can either of them find a sliver of light as darkness and war start to consume everyone and everything?

Summary
Sometimes people aren't chosen for a specific reason. Sometimes, you can't chalk things up to destiny or fate or something else equally exciting. Sometimes, you're just a human who gets swept up in a journey that you were never supposed to be involved in, and all because - for one, tiny glimmer of a moment - you did something brave.
---
You, are Y/n, a human who's just witnessed the end of the world. Creatures of myth and legend fill the streets of your home and destroy everything you love whilst you can do nothing but run. By some miracle, you make it to a Church where you find a Priest in the middle of giving his Last Sermon to a small group of survivors. You're convinced you'll die in God's holy house....
But outside, something approaches. Something dark and powerful. Something that all of humanity has learned to fear. In a state of confusion, you mistake it for a fellow human and try to save it's life.
Death returns the favour.
---
This is a story that chronicles your journey to aid the horseman, Death, on his quest and somehow find a way to restore humanity and find a way back home.- Language:
