This Immortal (1966)Roger Zelazny

1. As a youth, Paul Atreides showed ability to predict the future. He was known to have had prescient visions that were accurate, penetrating, and defied four-dimensional explanation.

The chapter introduces Paul Atreides as a youth with extraordinary prescient abilities that challenge conventional understanding of time and space. It highlights his exceptional endurance during the Bene Gesserit's humanity test and the Fremen's recognition of him as a prophetic figure upon his family's arrival on Arrakis. The Bene Gesserit's observations downplay the significance of both Paul's abilities and the environmental factors on Arrakis that contribute to heightened sensitivity among its inhabitants.
