Uliet

Uliet in Dune: House Atreides by Dev Pramanik and Alex Guimarães

Uliet was a renowned Fremen warrior from Windsack. He was assigned by the elders to kill Pardot Kynes accompanied by two watermen who would collect his blood and water after his death.

When Kynes instructed him to "Remove yourself", Uliet took his own life instead of Kynes', and the watermen took his body instead to the deathstill. Seeing this event, the Fremen who listened to Kynes called him Umma.

The shade of Uliet was advanced to the sadus, the throne of heavenly judges.

Dune Encyclopedia[]

Uliet was married to Lilja, an organizer of children's classes. She gave birth to their son Otheym at Sietch Tabr a few years before Uliet's death. While Otheym was too young to remember his father, he was highly inspired by his story, and became a true believer in the project Kynes spoke of.

Liet-Kynes was named after him, and Uliet was referred to in contrast as "Older Liet". (Or possibly this was the meaning of "Uliet" to begin with.)

Expanded Dune[]

Pardot later reflects that he named his son Liet, after Uliet.
