Why Tula Killed Orry & His Family - Did Valya Make Her Do It?
Tula carried out Valya’s vision by killing Atredies members
BeforeGriffin ’s death inDune : Prophecyepisode 3 , he reveals to his family that he is heading out toZimia . Zimia is the main city of the Corrino house planet of Salusa Secundus . Griffin wanted to visit because Landsraad , or the soundbox that represented all the Great Houses , accepted his petition to ensure a skilful whale pelt swop spate on his nursing home satellite of Lankiveil . While he ’s in Zimia , Griffin position out to track down and face Vorian Atreides , who Valya pick for dishonoring House Harkonnen . It ’s implied that Griffin did confront Vorian like Valya wanted him to and become flat for doing so .
The series implies that Vorian belt down Girffin but base on theSisterhood of Dunebook , he actually refused to fight him . Griffin was still vote out while in Zimia , which is why Valya blames Vorian . After Tula returns from Caladan , she sends a cryptical subject matter to her baby while she ’s training with Mother Reverend Superior Rquella and the Sisterhood . Valya sympathise its meaning at once and immediately returns home to corroborate that newsworthiness with her baby . While Tula is deep contrite , it ’s clear thatValya had orchestrated the plot for her to kill the Atredies and thaumaturgy Orry into fall in honey with herso she could get close enough to take them all out .
Was Tula Ever In Love With Orry?
She certainly had feelings but didn’t know him for very long
base on Tula ’s inscrutable sentiency of sorrow for give away Orry Atreides , it appear that she did start to fall in passion with him before she ultimately wipe out him . Tula was fortunate that all she had to do was bring home the bacon over Orry ’s fondness to gain access to his secret Atreides camp without raise suspicion , making it a relatively leisurely task for her to envenom the intact radical and get away unhurt . Tula ’s intimate scenes with Orry feel unfeigned and honest and she sincerely mourn Orry ’s deathafter she takes his life-time once she divulge her truthful individuality . It seemed like Orry was willing to look out over her Harkonnen background signal but that did n’t shift Tula ’s plan .
Tula chose to sacrifice what could have been a know family relationship and futurity with Orry in the name of avenging her Harkonnen menage name . It ’s evident that Tula is the favorite child in the eyes of their mother , which point all of the blame for the Atreides mass murder on Valya ’s scheming even though Tula was the one who did it . It ’s easy to blame Valya for seemingly come up with the theme in the first position but , despite the protective view of her female parent , Tula was just as if not more responsible for than Valya for Orry ’s death and the Atreides butchery . If Tula unfeignedly loved Orry she probably would not have been able to go through with itbut they had only known each other for a handful of months .
The Harkonnen Family’s Reaction To Tula’s Massacre Explained
Valya’s family blames her for Tula’s killings and Griffin’s death
Valya is hated by everyone in her home besides Tula because they pick her for Griffin ’s death , much like she blames Vorian Atreides for it . Similarly to Tula , who can seemingly do no wrong in her mother ’s eyes , Griffin was also believe to be a dupe of Valya ’s dangerous and aggressive strategy toward retaliation against House Atredies . Valya ’s mother and household have no desire to retaliate the Harkonnen name and legacy as Valya does . They see her obsessional efforts for vengeance as covetousness and needless ambition . It ’s ironic thatValya is only trying to furbish up the Hakonnen ’s status in the Imperium but her family does n’t seem to careabout that at all .
Griffin and Tula both believed in Valya ’s vision and supported her the good that they could . Valya ’s family , however , saw Valya as a menace who brought nothing but trouble and bad luck to their menage . Even after Valya nearly kills her own mother using The Voice inDune : Prophecyepisode 3 , Tula still comes to her tending and join the Sisterhood with her . In these flashback panorama , Tula is sure waxy and eager to make Valya gallant , which is a family relationship they persist in to share during the present - day timeline . It will be interesting to see whether the power dynamic will change between the biologic sisters and how Valya plans to use her aging uncle Evengy in future episode ofDune : Prophecy .
