Note 25
Master Yoda,
I thank you for hearing my concerns regarding the boy.
There is always risk present whenever a Padawan is trained. We cannot make the decisions for them. Eventually we will have to trust that the Padawan will be wise enough to use sound judgment. If the risk is not taken, we would have no more Padawans in the Jedi Order.
I have further news. The Queen, her people, Obi-Wan, Anakin, and I have reached the palace. Anakin took shelter in the cockpit of a fallen pilot. He should be safe there. I was firm with him, and he understands that he is to stay in the cockpit for his safety.
We were about to enter the main section of the palace when the doors opened, and the same Sith that I had fought on Tatooine stood there. Obi-Wan and I will handle this. The creature has revealed the full extent of his weapon to us. It is a double lightsaber. This is a Sith. Nothing will convince me otherwise.
By engaging it in battle, I believe the Queen will have an opportunity to accomplish what she set out to do. Droid deckas tried to stop Queen Amidala, but Anakin destroyed them with his star ship's fire power.
The coming battle will prove to be a challenge, I have no doubt. However, I will try to stop this Sith at all costs. The outcome of a battle is never certain, and no matter what happens, I will uphold the integrity of the Jedi.
May the Force be with you also.
I have one last request before I close this message. What have you seen of the recent Senate election? I am certain that Senator Palpatine was indeed elected. What have you noticed of his activities, and what is your opinion on the matter?
Master Qui-Gon Jinn
