A dream lingers. Brought to consciousness by natural exposure to the spice melange, a Fremen test called the Trials of Aql. In my stupor I have marked the symbol of a purple eye on my map - perhaps the location of this mysterious trial.
Remember Harmonthep, where our children were taken and made slaves! The words of the mysterious figure ring in my mind. Was it another dream? A vision? How then, have I awoken with this knowledge in my mind? Of how to craft a stillsuit. And the path to the next trial, engraved in the stone. Engraved in my mind. I will need to pursue this, but only once I have gotten myself across the sands to the Vermillius Gap.

Dialogue
During the trial
Sadus: Who is it that thinks? Ibn qirtaiba. The weight of a kindly God is a fearful thing. Do you understand, wali?
Sadus: Our God gave us the burning eyes of al-Lat, and the words of the Kitab al-Ibar. "Rest in black shade." Bi-la kaifa!
Sadus: When we began our wandering, we suffered. Until suffering was a thing we came to know within our souls. Arrakis is suffering. When we found it, we were home.
Sadus: On Harmonthep we were made to suffer. Our children taken and made slaves. They denied us the Hajj. Never to forgive! Never to forget!
Sadus: The weight of a kindly God is a fearful thing. Did not God give us the burning sun to defy? Suffering leads to defiance. And where does defiance lead?
Sadus: Ibn qirtaiba. Defiance leads to thought. Who is it that thinks? Those who suffer. Remember Harmonthep. Bi-la kaifa.
Interacting with altar
