Leto II, Paul Atreides’ son, fulfilled the Golden Path—a vision to ensure humanity's survival. In God Emperor of Dune, set 3,500 years later, Leto II is a godlike ruler, transformed into a massive sandworm hybrid. Arrakis, now called Rakis, is a lush, water-filled world, with sandworms extinct. Leto II hoards spice to control the universe, restricting travel and enforcing stagnation.

His brutal rule, upheld by the Fish Speakers, provokes conspiracies from the Bene Tleilaxu and Ixians. Using Duncan Idaho clones and human temptation, they plot his downfall. Leto II’s tyranny, however, is deliberate. By crushing humanity under his rule, he forces them to adapt, ensuring they scatter into the stars, free from centralized control. The Golden Path saves humanity from prescient-hunting machines but at the cost of unimaginable suffering and transformation.
