'Dune: Prophecy' showrunner and Harkonnen stars dissect a stellar first season (exclusive)

Three people exit a spaceship onto a dusty dry planet.

HBO's "Dune: Prophecy" aired its eventful season finale on Dec. 22, right before Christmas bells rang, and it was a satisfying end to this spinoff series set 10,000 years before Paul Atreides' birth and concerned the rise of the Bene Gesserit sect.

With the Sisterhood's thinking machine smashed to bits, Emperor Corrino putting himself out of his misery, Tula embracing her enhanced son Desmond Hart, and Valya finally touching down on Arrakis in the sixth episode titled "The High-Handed Enemy," many loose narrative ends and inevitable fates were all tied up in a bow with one major mystery left unsolved that might point to the AI overlord Omnius.
