No.

driftwood (not exactly grown but definitely present there)
While probably true, not what I was looking for. :lol:

You sick bastard! :lol:

BTW, Freak, I seem to be able to find or remember no special wood coming from Caladan.

Or really any specific wood type at all. Are you sure you didn't mix it up with Giedi/Gammu?
In memory of Perach, who suffered and died needlessly.

I wish I could have been with you that one last time.

Hey! You wrote "maple" and then edited it! :P

Vine eucalyptus?

(Would that be wood?)

No, it's a proper wood. Like you would make furniture out of.

I presume since nobody can find the reference, this is from the Dune Encyclopedia?

No, it's from one of the six FH books.

(That one still makes me laugh, even now. Even though it's not funny.)

With her last breaths she bubbled out a stirring rendition of an oldie...

There's a plaice for us...

JACARANDA!

An Amazonian species transplanted to the Caladanian equatorial regions early in the colonization of the planet, no doubt. ;)

There was a narrow table about two meters long almost in the center of the room.
The top was at least twenty millimeters thick. Teg guessed it was Danian
jacaranda. The deep brown surface had been polished to a sheen that drank the
vision and revealed far underneath veins like river currents. There were only
four admiral's chairs around the table, chairs crafted by a master artisan from
the same wood as the table, cushioned on seat and back with lyrleather of the
exact tone of the polished wood.

I grepped for (Caladan|Dan), case significant.

Got about 400 results. Lots of Face Dancers. :roll:

I pass on this one; whoever wants it, go for it.

I believe it's still Phaedrus' turn... but he seems to be AWOL.

Hey, I don't need official leave to be absent.

And I don't have my books on-hand right now, so I'll have to ask a question from memory...which probably means it will be easy.

Other than the ominous void creation of Sheeana's(I forget whether it was named or not, but I assume you know the reference!), what other piece of art did Odrade analyze during her visit?
You aren't thinking or really existing unless you're willing to risk even your own sanity in the judgment of your existence.

A black on white drawing of a sandworm.
FH in Ch:D wrote:Odrade was struck by the mixture of functional and nonfunctional.
Sheeana had managed to make her rooms reflect herself. A standard Bene Gesserit cot had been covered with a bright orange and umber spread. A black-on-white line drawing of a sandworm, head-on with all of its crystal teeth displayed, filled an end wall. Sheeana had drawn it, relying on Other Memory and her Dune childhood to guide her hand.
In memory of Perach, who suffered and died needlessly.

I wish I could have been with you that one last time.

I think oralds right.... well, i know he is.

But if thats not the one you mean it's cottages by Ole' Vincent. Which i believe Sheanna takes from Odrades study at some point, and claims she wants to put it in the hold, or something like that.

But im seconding the black and white piccy.
The HLP hasnt released Frank's notes yet, Brian hasn't got the handwriting quite right!

She also admired Ballet Master, a shigawire sculpture belonging to Dama, the Great Honored Matre.
