Pages torn from the diary of Saché, Handmaiden to Queen Amidala of Naboo. Written during the occupation of Naboo by the Trade Federation.

As I sit here on a balcony of Theed Palace, I wonder what the next few days will hold.
The Jedi are supposed to arrive tomorrow. We can only hope that their intervention will stop the Trade Federation's blockade. Our people are beginning to go hungry. If someone doesn't do something soon, I don't know what will happen. We do have one thing on our side, though--our Queen.

How proud I am now to serve her!
When I was first chosen to be a handmaiden, I had mixed feelings, but now I know I am in the right place.

Padmé is proof that leadership does not require years, only wisdom. Without her leadership, I am sure Naboo would have fallen long ago...
