Awww! I liked Alia in the books! ...Well, I had sympathy for her, anyway. Dune, to me, was very much a story without heroes, but rather a spectrum of flaws and viewpoints. Much like how I see 40k. I'm more inclined to help our Alia somehow, if we're able.

I think we need to offer her something positive, in exchange for her cooperation. "Tell us everything you know, betray your House, and in return, we'll ask Hax to kill you quickly" is a very Warhammer negotiations tactic, but as we discovered from the last pirate captain we captured, it won't win us any loyalty.

This presumes that nobody is suggesting we offer to actually lie for her and hide her involvement in the murders, of course. I doubt that Anika would agree to let her keep on killin' so long as she gives us the "why." Kennoch would be pretty ticked. Not more than he already is about Galimina, but there would probably be some squawking from the little Navis.
