Reverend Mother Superior Murbella strode confidently into the Honored Matre compound, letting the echoes of her footfalls act as a warning. Her new perspective allowed her to not only immediately identify the various security issues there, but the reasons for them. In her mind, the voices laughed wryly. She allowed them their jubilance.
"The face dancers have escaped," she said loudly, startling the attendant who followed her, "while we are stuck cleaning up a mess of our own creation." The attendant looked momentarily confused but did not respond. The statement was not meant for her and she knew it. Murbella had to repress an urge to sigh, allowing herself instead to take a deep breath and use a Bene Gesserit relaxation exercise. One would almost envy the face dancers, given the formidable task before her. The loss of Idaho was like a cauterized wound in her psyche. It was clear that she would never be allowed a moment's respite from the onslaught of ambitious Honored Matres who coveted her position and understood so little about how she had actually acquired it. She asked herself if this was an impossible task set before her. The successes of the recent past had given her a confidence not unlike that she had acquired when beginning her training. But how do you stop the whirlwind?
