Good guess, but no.

[A reasonable guess - Mars was the planet closest to Earth, after all. Paul decides to clarify things a bit. But his tone and his expression are completely serious. He knows it will be a difficult sell. If he brought something from his homeworld, he might have proof, but he only has the clothes on his back. Noticing that she's eating, he picks up the pace a little.

Even if he wasn't very hungry, it's not bad. Nothing to compare with Caladan food, of course, but Paul doesn't want to make comparisons, especially when he's a guest here. And his title wouldn't mean much of anything. With his very limited knowledge of this country, he's pretty sure they don't have ducal heirs, or dukes for that matter.]


In the time and place I come from, humans have spread throughout the universe.

[He smiles a little, to show that he's friendly.] My home planet is named Caladan. It's not a world in your solar system.
