What the hell does that mean?

( where to start .......... )

My mother is part of a sisterhood called the Bene Gesserit who, among many other things, have engaged in breeding programs for the past ten thousand years to construct what they call the Kwisatz Haderach, or chosen one. So, I'm of a long line of planned births to breed favorable attributes, including that which most defines me as the chosen — my ability to see into the future, despite my sex.

[ this was not on his calendar today or ever ]

Were there failed ones? If this has been going on for ten thousand years.

[dictator]

Not exactly. I'm sure there were hopefuls in times prior, but anyone who tested would've failed in some degree — the Sisterhood do enjoy their tests, such as the Gom Jabbar, which inevitably rob their victims life. Unforgivable, to my eyes.

But, they do have an understanding of pathways and futures. If I were born as a woman as I was meant to, the Kwisatz Haderach likely would've been my little sister Alia, who would've been a male.

[scone]

So a woman can't be this Kwisatz Haderach chosen one? What the hell kind of shitty rule is that?

[ explain and then kill yourself. ]

My biological father genetically modified his children, too. All five of us. We were supposed to be super soldiers for him. The rest of them still are.

All of the Sisterhood is women. No man can ever be one of the Bene Gesserit, unless he is the Kwisatz Haderach.

( — oho? ) Modified them how?

[scone]

It sounds like the women already have what it takes to be the chosen ones.

Our enhancements are done at the genetic level, so my brothers were born with superhuman strength and a bulletproof exoskeleton. It comes at the cost of their emotions — they don't feel things like love or empathy. You could be on fire and they wouldn't be compelled to piss on you. My sister was born to follow any command that my father gives her. I was the failure.

[dictator]

Yes. But it's their prophecy, artificial though it may be.

It does not sound to me as though you were the failure. You certainly feel a lot, Sanji. Anyone could see that. Are emotions some great failing, by your standards?
