Leto and Ghanima willingly summon the ego-memories of their parents, Paul and Chani. They believe that the experience is different from Abomination as they call upon their ancestors voluntarily. Through the bodies of Leto and Ghanima, Paul and Chani speak to each other. Paul explains that his last prescient vision before disappearing into the desert was of “the Golden Path” (104), an obscure reference to a future where prescience no longer exists. Leto had seen this path in his dreams. At the end of their session, Chani at first refuses to leave Ghanima’s body, but Leto tells her that he and Paul will despise her if she possesses Ghanima, and Chani fades away.

Ghanima and Leto return to their bodies. Ghanima is wary of Jessica’s intentions and worries that the Bene Gesserit may expect the twins to mate to preserve their unique genes. Leto is determined to follow the Golden Path despite the risks and Paul’s and Ghanima’s objections. Ghanima worries that Leto is keeping something from her but agrees to follow the course. They devise secret plans that involve faking a death and saving themselves from Abomination.
