Supreme Chancellor Palpatine,
I would like to thank you for your continuing support toward the Jedi. A funeral service is most appreciated for Master Qui-Gon. Many are mourning the loss. I will send some Jedi to you to make the proper arrangements for the service. His body must be laid on a pyre and burned. The burning with fire signifies life and the ashes remaining represents hope, an unending cycle of life and death.
Anakin is my Padawan and a fine one so far. The thing that is special about him is that he is highly sensitive to the force as are most Jedi, including myself. Do not feel as if you need to protect him, all Republic citizens should receive equal protection and Jedi are more capable than the average citizen to take care of themselves. He will be well taken care of within the Temple walls and I will constantly be supervising his progression in the force.
You are correct about the Sith where there are always two. Anakin will be sufficiently protected by the force and myself. The Sith seek to destroy the Jedi, we are all in danger and all of us will be protected equally. However thank you for your concern.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
