For the first time a detail from the Dune books is being shown on Dune II. Drum Sand along with the thumper is how the Fremen called Sandworms. Drum Sand is real phenomena. When sand lays in a certain density at a angle on a sand dune you get sand that if you pound it with you fist it sounds like a bass drum. In the Dune books the Fremen figure travel not buy km but number of worms it takes to get to a destination.

Prepare to be weirded out. It is details like this that make you realize just how good Frank Herbert was.
