Honored Matre : ウィキペディア英語版 | Honored Matres
The Honored Matres are a fictional matriarchal organization in Frank Herbert's science fiction ''Dune'' universe. They are described as an aggressive cult obsessed with power, violence, and sexual domination. For this reason they are often described as "whores", especially by their enemies, the Bene Gesserit. The Honored Matres are first introduced in Herbert's ''Heretics of Dune'' (1984) and play a continued role in his final ''Dune'' novel, ''Chapterhouse: Dune'' (1985). They also appear in ''Hunters of Dune'' (2006) and ''Sandworms of Dune'' (2007), novels by Herbert's son Brian Herbert and author Kevin J. Anderson that conclude the original series. The sequels are based on Frank Herbert's notes for his planned seventh novel in the series. ==Storylines== After the death of the tyrant Leto II Atreides in ''God Emperor of Dune'' (1981), trillions of people of the Old Empire take to the stars in a diaspora known as the Scattering. Representatives from each major race and order of the Empire spread out beyond the known universe in fleets of no-ships, beginning the journey along Leto II's Golden Path to save mankind from destruction.
