Who: Leto and Chae-Lim
When: Friday, after the curse ends (predated)
Where: Leto's tent
What: Leto has some parting gifts for his student
Warning: Sads.


Leto paced inside his tent. He wasn't easily scared. He'd been awoken to consciousness in his mother's womb, flooded with the memory-lives of his ancestors. He'd spent his childhood riding worms and avoiding assasination attempts. At age 17 he'd accepted the sandworm skin, knowing it would doom him to thousands of years of lonely life as he metamorphasized into the creature's adult form. He'd overthrown the rule of his tyrant aunt and led a second jihad clamped the universe down in his name. More recently he'd faced down the Shinsengumi then submitted to torture to prove his innocence.
For once, Leto Atreides the Second, God-Emperor of Dune, master of Shai-Halud was scared. He was going to have to tell Chae he was leaving and all the above seemed to pale in comparison to that task.
He looked down at the two milky white crysknives in his hands and waited for her.

chae-lim, leto
