Dune: the Butlerian Jihad
“— XAVIER HARKONNEN, military address Seven days.
Brigit Paterson hadn’t wanted to cut the time so close, but she worked her crew hard. She checked and double-checked their work, insuring that there were no errors. An entire planet was at stake.
According to Serena’s best estimate, the engineers had finished with a little time to spare.
After testing the scrambler-shield system and finding everything operational, even to her most precise standards, Brigit finally gave her people a few hours of r...est. Some sat staring into the cold gray skies through the windowplaz of their barracks huts; others fell immediately to sleep as if they had been placed in suspended animation.
The Armada actually arrived on the morning of the ninth day.
The eavesdropping system she had installed to tap into the Omnius sensor network blared with a flurry of alarms. Brigit woke her team and told them the League fleet was on its way into the system, ready to retake Giedi Prime. She hoped that Serena had intercepted the ships and told them what to expect.MoreLess
