I predict that it will be a spice-laser that is like a lasgun, but only kills your target. It also gives preteens erections. It is powered by water and ultra-spice precursor. It will be mentioned as being much more dangerous, powerful, and efficent than a weirding module. it looks something like a small box with 2 small metal handlebars called an em-mitter
Paul doesn't need it now with his Kwizjedi powers. He just uses choking and lightning to lay down the enemy forces from the front line. Then to inspire the enemy with awe, he makes it rain. Then he is heralded as a great diplomat by converting his captives with Dianetics. However he still dual-wields katanas, which if he concentrates turn into ultrasabers.
The Duncan ghola is sent to Amzonia to seduce their warrior queen. She keeps calling him Kir'c and sends assassins to kill Alia. Alia seduces the assassins and Duncan returns to spend the rest of the book in orgies learning how to sexually enslave women. One of the assassins turns out to be Fayd's daughter and stabs Paul's lookalike body double accidentally. However Paul is still alive and feels the pain of his double. She realizes this and attacks the real Paul, who seduces her with mind control ( and more rain) and bribes her with the secret of ultra spice. she reveals herself to be a Tleilaxu super FD from the future sent to warn him about the machine threat, but to preserve the timeline she cant tell him any details, and because she loves him, she stabs herself first with the dagger to cleanse it of the autopoison. Paul takes the dagger and stabs himself for causing her so much pain, but doesn't die, his life is saved by a 2-1b droid. This begins Duncan thinking back to his days when he served in the Butlerian Jihad and how could man and machine ever live in peace?
as usual, it ends with some couple reaffirming their eternal love for each other. (If you haven't noticed, KJA does this in every novel he's ever written.)
...btw i just realized how ludicrious this book will be. The jihad makes the holocaust look like a misdemeanor and you know they will make Paul look heroic as if he is battling some barbarian horde or the last remanants of the dying empire legions of stor....sardaukar.
