The first novell

[Anathema]

I have a question. Hawat was going to betray and murder Paul for some reason beyond me when Paul defeated the emperor. Paul changed his mind but why did he inted it in the first place?

[Frodo]

hawat was captured from the harkonnen and was forced to do their bidding.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

btw what happened to Hawat.

I haven't seen his name mentioned once in Dune Messiah?

[TMA_1]

He didnt betray. He killed himself rather than betray paul.

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

Yes, before fight with Feyd he killed himself with poisoned needle.

[zispin]

Yeah, but hadn't he been given that poison when he was first captured, and the Harkonnen had been feeding him the antidote?

[TMA_1]

antidotes dont cure all poisons. antidote just is a simple saying for something that counteracts a certain poison or sickness. Nema or somebody much smarter could say it better.lol anyways that poison was different then the constant poison he was fed in his meals.

Thufir was injected with the late Piter De Vries' invention - the Residual Poison. It's a poison that is uncurable. However, there is a temporary remedy, which must be taken at certain times (i.e. twice a day). Withdrawal of the poison will kill the victim (Thufir).
