Liet Kynes was a prominent planetologist of the Padishah Emperor Shaddam Corrino IV. Assigned to Arrakis to study the spice cycle, Liet Kynes was secretly leading the Fremen's ecological project started by her father. Her twin loyalty made her a skillful schemer able to navigate both the convoluted Fremen traditions and the impenetrable Imperial administration. The Fremen had an almost religious admiration for Liet, who they believed would lead them to a utopian Arrakis, freed both from the Imperium and from water scarcity. Just like her people, Liet was wary of outsiders, but also kind and trustworthy, concerned to the highest degree with the well-being and freedom of the Fremen.[1]
