When the Atreides land at Arrakis the fremen are watching from a distance. You might be able to add narration there.

A text report might also work (why not)

The Irulian narration starts with 'A begining is a very delicate time…"

What she is referring to is House atreides being granted control over the CHOAM contract of Arrakis.

So here is a brief text to try and now set up the prologue narration…

“The CHOAM contract held by House Harkonnen for 80 years to mine Spice on Arrakis has expired. it has been found not only to have been in breach with corruption but also exploitation, with spice flow down at it’s lowest capacity ever will not be renewed. The great houses of the landsraad agreed unamiously with the Emperor’s decision to award the contract to Vladamir Harkonnen’s arch enemy, House Atreides and Duke Leto the Just in fief entire”

Then after Irulian and “A begining is a delicate time”

This is the best I can come up with as a preface… I am pretty sure I seen some sort of concept art for an atreides talking in front of a crowd or something perhaps another missing scene? Anyway this took ages to think up…
