"All of you back off, you fools, she's holding a knife to my neck, she will cut my throat,"
Stilgar raised his neck, trying to avoid being scratched by Lady Jessica's dagger, yet he spoke calmly.
The Fremen are formidable warriors, but Jessica, as a witch once rigorously trained by the Sisterhood, is skilled in physical control and combat abilities, as well as mental influence, and counteracted the leader of the Fremen who underestimated women in an instant when the conflict broke out.
A Fremen warrior stabbed at Jessica, but the witch easily dodged with a simple sidestep, then shaped her hand into a palm, nimbly and delicately chopping at the Fremen warrior's neck, knocking him down.
Stilgar was also instantly overtaken by this combination of witch and warrior, and his Crystal Fang Dagger was seized.
However, judging by Stilgar's tone, this formidable leader did not seem worried about his situation; perhaps, this was the scenario he was pleased with.
