Note 35
Queen Amidala,
Your most recent report was indeed favorable. It is good to know that our people are finally safe. Your boldness has saved our people. You are to be congratulated.
As you are probably aware, I am already on Naboo for Qui-Gon Jinn's funeral, as well as the awards ceremony that you spoke of. I think that your awards ceremony idea is an excellent one. In fact, I would like to include a parade as part of the awards ceremony. It would be good for our people to see those that saved them.
Young Skywalker is very talented. I cannot imagine possessing such talent.
I am exceedingly sorry to hear that Master Qui-Gon Jinn is dead. If I understand you correctly, a Sith must be an enemy of the Jedi. I see, that would explain a lot. But it seems as though Obi-Wan was able to kill it.
Very good. I am pleased to hear that you approve of the idea of having a funeral on Naboo for Qui-Gon Jinn. I am setting up the details as we speak. I will forward to you the designs for it, as well as the place and time. Please pass this information on to our citizens and friends.
And, Queen Amidala, I would be glad to be in attendance at the awards ceremony. I would not be able to pass up such an event.
I will speak with you later.
Supreme Chancellor Palpatine
