The Emperor, tired of the feuding between the two houses, permits the Atreides to take over the Spice production on Dune, while secretly working with the Harkonnens to launch a sneak attack on the Atreides and destroy them. The Spice is only available on the desert world of Arrakis, or Dune. Each house is trying to gain dominion over the universe, but that dominion can only be gained by the house that controls the Spice, a special substance that permits the folding of time. In the kingdom are two rival houses - the House of Atreides and the House of Harkonnen.
