Light years away in a world called Arrakis, a Sardaukar soldier of the Padishah Emperor had served prominently during the Corrino Empire. This soldier was respected and feared by all who encountered him. Even though he was born into a struggling life he was taught from an early age to seek justice for the oppressed and fight for what was right. He was respected for his courage and strength and was often chosen to lead the Emperor's forces in battle. He became a highly decorated soldier who earned the respect of his peers.

Years passed and the once unbreakable grasp of the Empire began to crumble. The Corrino Empire was no longer able to offer the people of Arrakis the justice and safety they deserved. The Sardaukar soldier was determined to fight against these injustices against the Empire and find a way to stop the rebellion from taking control. Kadilak, as what his fellow soldiers called him, encouraged him to lead them and go back to Arrakis to finally put down the evil rebellion.

The people of Arrakis are struggling to survive in the harsh desert conditions and are not only fighting for their justice; but also for their lives. Kadilak, along with his fellow soldiers, are determined to bring justice to the people of Arrakis and, once and for all, bring peace to the Arrakis people.

Not another bootleg! Well, as a thank you to all those who supported our very first release we wanted to give you all a free track. Didnt find many dnb bootlegs with the full vocal and KNOXZ laid it out proper giving you a diverse track that could bridge any neuro, jungle, or big vibe style to your liking. Wouldnt be right if we didnt remix the artwork too. Hope you all enjoy and thank you for checking it out.
