Mother Superior Valya Harkonnen’s latest move has left many reeling in the wake of her brutal takeover of the Atreides party on Wallach IX. The once-loyal Tula, who had been keeping Valya’s true intentions hidden, finally revealed her shocking heritage – that she is a member of House Harkonnen.
Valya’s cunning plan involved using a toxin to kill Orry Atreides, leaving him dead and her position as the leader of the Sisterhood unchallenged. The scene at the hunt where Tula poisons Orry is particularly chilling, highlighting Valya’s ruthlessness in achieving her goals.
The article also delves into Valya’s backstory, revealing her origins within the Sisterhood and how she cultivated “The Voice” – a powerful technology that allows her to control others through hypnosis. Mother Superior Raquela’s introduction of this technology marked a turning point in Valya’s rise to power.
As Valya navigates her new position, she will likely continue to use her cunning and The Voice to secure the Sisterhood’s hold on the great houses, especially with Emperor House Corrino at stake.
