So they did have spice. This was good to know. Death was not immanent.
But... Their home was lost.
Alia had only just lost her brother to the desert, and not to find her husband gone, her home. Arakkis... lost.
It was a powerful thing to have to understand. Every love and companion she had, was now gone, perhaps, forever.

The walls and floors and ceiling suddenly felt like a noose, she would die here, strangled by the steel and glass. Already Alia longed for the desert with all her being, to ride the worm into the deep sands like the fremen she was. Or rather, used to be.

She could say nothing, as there was nothing to be said. Shock devoured her words like the guild did her spice.

"What becomes of us now?"
