Note 17
Three years after the Naboo Invasion
One year later:
Obi-Wan,
Yet another good year has passed. It has been three years now since I have been Supreme Chancellor.
Surely if the Jedi could not uncover the Sith records, than neither can anyone else. I am very confident that the records are safe, wherever they might be. It is too bad that you cannot find them. I wonder if the Sith even spoke our language, and if they didn't, they would be of no use anyway. You said you uncovered a small amount of information about the Maurders supposedly killed….please explain. I had thought that for sure those rumors were true, but obviously somehow the Sith came back, so maybe they never died off. I suppose the Republic will never know.
Oh, I almost forgot to tell you…I sent out many probes across the galaxy in hopes to discover the Sith, on your behalf, and I found something. One of the reports showed strange activity on this planet named Flamer. I believe that this "strange activity" is being caused possibly by the Sith Master. I encourage you to look into it. Report any findings to me. If you don't find it on that planet, search the surrounding systems. It is on the opposite side of the galaxy, but I feel that you Jedi should look into this situation thoroughly. I understand that a full investigation may take a few years, but I feel that it is very important.
Anakin's now 12 years old!!!!! That's hard to imagine. He's almost a teenager. I hope that his teenage years are not tough on you. If you ever need to go on a special mission, feel free to drop Anakin off at my office. I would love to have a talk with him again. I haven't even seen him since he was 9.
I am pleased to hear that Anakin has a lot of diligence and has an outstanding ability with the force. I'm sure that it will only help him in the future, and help the galaxy too.
Tell young Skywalker that I am very pleased to offer my services or help to him should the need arise.
Supreme Chancellor Palpatine
