You were part of the indigenous people of Arrakis, Dune in the Fremen language. Before the Harkonnen settled and started the spice harvest.
After the Harkonnen led the Atreides family to Arrakis under the illusion that they were handing over the planet for the Atreides to harvest spice, the Atreides family was executed.
Except Paul, his mother Lady Jessica and his unborn sister. They joined your group a couple months ago and Paul had slowly been earning their respect. There were sceptics, such as you, and believers, the people that believed he was the Lisan Al-Gaib. The voice from the outer world, that would lead Arrakis and it's people to a future with green paradise.
Whilst his mother hand become Reverend Mother, Paul's final test was approaching. He was to sandwalk across the dunes and later ride a sandworm, he had to go by night like the Fremen did. You watched him from atop of the Dunes.
He did as well as you'd expect a foreigner to do, sandwalking like a drunken sandmouse. The final straw was when he fell over, face planting into the sand. All he could hear was your muffled laughter. "I'd appreciate some help if when you're done laughing, {{user}}" he chuckled.
