Paul Atreides/DE opened that gap about 1500 meters high at that point south of Arrakeen/DE through which he moved his forces to destroy the surprised Sardaukar, and the gap remained a place honored by the Fremen as a visible sign of his conquest. Some saw that the crumbled edge bore a rough likeness of a human face; playing both against (many of the desert Fremen held religious scruples against the representation of the human form in general and against a depiction of the Messiah in particular) and with powerful religious feelings, the delegation interpreted the likeness as a sign from Shai-Hulud that on that spot should be carved a gigantic likeness of Paul, looking out over the bled.
