Fanatics find their heaven in never ending storming wind [closed]

In a converted pool, with artificial sunlight, Sheeana's worm was agitated. It paced its grey-brown bulk up and down the colorful sand, leaping and spraying sand.

"They will be here soon. Honestly, this is not like you at all. You who waited three thousand years for our future."

It only got more hyperactive when it heard approaching footsteps, like an excited puppy. Arha's worm circled lazily at the other end of the pool, not knowing what all the fuss was about. It had already met Luq Skaiwaqer Jed-Eye, liked him but did not understand its smaller twin's excitement.

"You need it to survive, don't you? Doesn't Stacy already provide it in your food?"

"Some of it. But it's not enough. And the chemical structure is incomplete." Not to mention the taste. Sheeana made a little face.

"Incomplete?" This made him rather curious--if the spice was a necessary component of their diet it didn't seem to make sense that it'd be administered in an incomplete form. Just how much did they need, anyway?

"For the same reason those who use mechanical armor are denied it, I suspect. The thinking machine does not want us at our full power." It was obvious by the way she said 'thinking machine' that she felt no small amount of disdain for such things.

"Then why would she let the Jedi here keep full use of their abilities?" If Stacy didn't want them at full power, then he should have felt some lessening of his connection to the Force, but if anything it was stronger than ever here.

She shrugged. "Perhaps she can't? The Force is part of you. Maybe part of all of us. She is limited."

"Not to be callous," he said, "But maybe there's a reason she doesn't want you to have more than the necessary amount of spice."
