CHAPTER 2: A NEW WAY OF LIFE
Princess Leia had got accustomed to living in a palace once again. Han Solo, now her fiancé, and her brother, Luke Skywalker, lived in the palace with her. Chewbacca, R2-D2 and C-3PO lived in the palace as well.
Luke entered the courtyard where Leia was resting. He sat down on the bench next to her.
"I'm beginning to like this new way of life," said Luke.
"It's wonderful that we don't have to worry about The Empire any more," replied Leia.
Both sat in contented silence for a while. Han Solo joined them soon afterwards.
"Hey everybody," said Han Solo, wrapping his arms around Leia and kissing her tenderly.
"I hope that's not how you say hello to everyone," laughed Luke.
Han Solo playfully punched Luke on the arm.
As they were talking, Chewbacca entered, leading a man into the courtyard.
"Jillon Nartano!" exclaimed Leia, "what a pleasant surprise."
Jillon Nartano was relatively young for a man of his status, only in his early thirties. His long black hair was braided in dreadlocks, and he had a pointed goatee. He wore formal black attire, but greeted Leia with an informal smile.
"I came to congratulate you once again on your great victory," Jillon said, "I have brought a gift for you."
Jillon then unveiled a beautiful golden blanket.
"For your bed," he said, "It will make it even more beautiful than I'm sure it already is."
"It is wonderful," said Leia, "Come with me, we'll put it on my bed now."
A while later, Leia and Jillon returned to the courtyard.
"The blanket looks stunning," said Leia, "Thank you."
"No, thank you for your courtesy," replied Jillon, "Now I must go."
Jillon waved to them all as he boarded his ship. He took off into the air. He looked round from his position in the pilot's seat to find himself face- to-face with Darth Maul and Count Dooku.
"I know where Leia's room is," said Jillon Nartano, Darth Inferno, "We strike tonight."
