Note 7 - Author LukeSkywalker_2001

Obi-Wan Kenobi,

As you well know, the funeral service is now over. I hope that you and the rest of the Jedi were satisfied with it. I think it went well. It did draw in a large crowd. Since the Trade Federation Invasion has now been concluded, I think it is time we celebrate the invasion's end. How would a parade sound? Say tomorrow morning?

As you know, I have personal guards….they wear black uniforms. As Supreme Chancellor, I think I'm going to change their uniforms to red…I think it would be a better color for them. But those guards are VERY well trained. They will kill anyone in an instant…

Besides, if anyone were to be foolish enough to assassinate me, I have the power to give those people the death sentence….if anyone tries to kill me in private…when my guards are not around, they will be surprised. My father taught me some things…mostly how I can defend myself, before he died.

I also have security guards all over the place, so I do have to tell you that I am well secured. If I ever run into a dangerous situation, maybe I could call on some Jedi to help protect me. I'm sure that I will require the Jedi's assistance sometime in the future.

Let's see, a reward to Anakin….I have this very old book that I want him to have some day, but it is very hard reading…..and it is written in an old language. When he's older, I would like to give it to him. My own father found the book and decided to give it to me. It is extremely valuable. A 9 year old would not be interested in that sort of thing at this point in his life, so I will not give it to him at this time. I want to give him something a little more useful…my protection. If he ever needs anything from the Republic, I would be glad to grant it to him immediately. I have had a special trophy made for him…personally designed by me, and I wish to present it to him sometime. When would be a good time?

You are correct…I can assure you that I will be careful with any information I receive on Anakin. I won't publish information that could hurt him in any way. If you'd like…before I publish the book, I can ask for your approval. If you think it's too dangerous, I won't publish it. Does that sound fair?

Do all the Jedi fear the Sith right now? I'm sure you're going through extra training to prepare against them?

So you think that the Sith was an apprentice. Hmmm…that means that the master could be more dangerous. The Jedi are right in taking precautions. I hope that you do not ever have to face the master….or another apprentice.

Hmmm….you also feel that the master is searching for another apprentice. Let us hope that you are wrong. I do hope that you find this master.

I'm sure that you will find other sources of information.

Well I must go. I have a lot of work to do.

Supreme Chancellor Palpatine
