Author notes:

1. I do not own SW or any of the official SW characters.

2. These letters should not be taken literally

3. This story is AU

4. I'm having co-writers write the part of Padme.

Time frame: This story starts at the beginning of AOTC and will end in either AOTC or ROTS.

Dorme traveled ahead of Padme to Coruscant, and news of the attack on the landing platform has just reached her. She decides to contact Padme to make sure that everything is all right.

And the story begins....

Note 1:
(This was written after AOTC came out)

Padmé,

The assassination attempt on the landing platform scared me. It's not for me that I worry, but for you. Please be careful. We must get inside…as Captain Typho has said; you are not out of danger yet. We must move quickly to the Senate building…we must speak to Palpatine as soon as we can. He must be made aware of the danger you are in. I suppose now that Corde is dead you're going to ask me to be your decoy. I do not mind…that would do me great honor.

Your handmaiden,
Dorme
