AN: This chapter isn't very long because I was in the middle of doing some of my exams and I needed to set up a couple of things before I continued with the actual story. That's not to say if you don't review I won't withhold the next chapter until you do:-)
Letter 3
Letter intercepted by Lieutenant MacLeane.
Dear Lord Jinn,
King Palpatine knows of me and I am sure it will not take him long to connect recent events with me. I do not do these things for the reasons I think you believe. I respect you and I know about you and Lord Kenobi, as many do, but what I know, that they do not, is the Jedi's true identity.
Do not fear for yourself, I am only interested in him. I take from him what he would take from our king not because I disapprove of his curse but because of the man himself. I do not even hold your own betrayal against you, given similar circumstances I would have turned from my king into the arms of my lover. Perhaps it is because of this that I find myself on this path. I follow not the king nor the rebellion and the League. I am alone in my struggle but I shall win.
I vow I will not reveal your treason to Palpatine; you are safe from him. All I want is to show the Jedi that he is not untouchable, and in that I think I am succeeding. You, I respect, Qui-Gon Jinn and your secret is safe. I just wanted to reassure you of that before I embark on the final stage of my journey. The end is coming, I can feel it, and so can he. Can you see it in his face? Do you really believe you can see behind his masks? Are you another victim of his righteous cause? Or maybe it is the pursuit you are victim to?
Lies follow lies. Betrayal follows betrayal. The end follows the beginning. Treasure him while you can because soon he and I will meet.
