Shmi,
Your mood would be understandable, and don't worry about mistakes. Speaking your mind and heart is never a mistake. Its how you choose to do it that's the mistake, if one is made. It sounds as if your husband is having an attack of a guilty conscience and lashing out at others. This is not a good thing.
Yes, that's correct. We're en route to the palace now. I am taking Anakin with me. I won't allow him to linger behind in the path of danger. I am considering the present situation first, at the moment. I simply meant that I would not just forget and leave off my responsibility to fulfilling my word to you.
Yes, I believe they will. Like most people, they are resistant to change, and Anakin represents a huge change in how things are normally done at the Temple.
You're very welcome. Its the least I can do. He's doing well so far. Some minor disappointment over the initial words of the Council, but that'll pass soon enough.
He does, yes. I'm sure he will. Obi-Wan is an exceptional man. He has but to grow into that. But it'll happen.
I thank you for your confidence. I will do my best to give him the best possible training. He's important, not only because he's the Chosen One that will restore balance to the Force, but also because he's my friend. I value my friends highly.
It won't. His training will be the direct input of the one training him, namely me. The Council will rarely interact with him after that.
Thank you. I'm certainly going to try. Thank you once more, my friend. And you're welcome.
Your friend
Qui-Gon Jinn
