What can fans expect from Dune: Prophecy season finale?


More of Desmond Hart's backstory

Going into the Dune: Prophecy finale, fans can expect to see more of Desmond Hart's backstory. So far, Desmond Hart was shown as a soldier of the Imperium who was swallowed by Shai Hulud on Arrakis and came out of it with mysterious powers. All fans know about him is that he hates the Sisterhood and is loyal to the Imperium, but more about his character was revealed in the last episode.

Desmond Hart is the son of Tula Harkonnen. This is revealed after Tula receives his blood and she runs it through the genetic codex only to realize that he comes from both House Atreides and House Harkonnen. However, Tula's expression makes it clear that she is his mother as she also used to have a romance with Orry Atreides.

So, fans can certainly expect to see her backstory with Desmond and why she had to give him away.


Sister Francesca's influence on the Imperium

Tabu also finally debuted as Sister Francesca in episode 5 of the show. With her being used as a way to influence Emperor Corrino to come onto the Sisterhood's side, fans can certainly expect to see how she is influencing the Imperium in the Dune: Prophecy season finale.

It is already revealed that she has a romance with Corrino and the preview also showcases that it will continue in the upcoming episode. This can certainly cause some issues as the Emperor's wife Natalya isn't all happy with Francesca's arrival as well. With Constantine also being made in charge of the Imperial fleet, it certainly looks like drama is on the horizon.


The true nature of the reckoning

Currently, not much is known about the reckoning. However, fans can expect that to change as everything will surely be revealed in the upcoming Dune: Prophecy season finale. Seeing as this is what the show has been building up to, a lot will certainly come to a head in the final episode.

Not only that but perhaps it may also include some ties to Paul Atreides as well and how the story leads to him.
