Prologue
Padmé Amidala Kenobi sat at her vanity while Rabé fixed her hair. Well, not exactly sitting…more like squirming she thought ruefully.Rabé huffed and rolled her eyes.
"Milady, sit still for once! I know you're just excited but please, stop moving so I can get your hair done"
Padmé sighed and attempted not to roll her eyes.
"Yes, Mother." she said while smiling at Rabé in the mirror. Rabé laughed and stuck one more curl into place.
"There! You're done!" she cried in triumph but Padmé was already out the door and walking down the hallway. She clutched the turquoise ring tightly. The ring was on a chain that she now wore all the time. Luckily it was hidden from anyone's view by the long gown of green silk with gold embroidery. That ring was something very special to her. She never wanted to lose it for it was her engagement ring and her wedding ring. That's why she was so excited and was practically running down the hallway. Well…the ring wasn't the reason why she was practically running down the hallway, oh no no no! It was because her husband, Obi-Wan Kenobi, was coming home.
