Ghanima
Ghanima (meaning 'spoil of war' in the Fremen language) is a fictional character in the Dune universe created by Frank Herbert. She is a main character in Frank Herbert's third novel in the Dune series: Children of Dune. She is the daughter of Paul Atreides and Chani, and twin sister to Leto Atreides II. Ghanima had a very close relationship with Leto; they worked together to create the Golden Path, a plan to avoid humanity's almost inevitable future destruction. She supplied her fertile creativity to the details of the plan, and ensured the continuation of the Atreides line by bearing children fathered by Farad'n of House Corrino. Upon his ascension to power, Leto II took Ghanima as his wife in a purely political marriage, and appointed to Farad'n the post of Royal Scribe.
