Chancellor Palpatine,
There is no need to congratulate me. I was simply serving my people to the best of my ability. Besides, the true reason we were so successful was because of Anakin, not me. You are correct in saying he is talented. If you don't mind my asking, how exactly do you know how talented he is? Forgive me if that seems rude, I am only curious.
I most definitely approve of having a funeral for Qui-Gon here on Naboo. He will be regarded as a hero to our people and it is only fitting that we honor him here. As to the suggestion of having a parade for the ceremony, I'm not sure that's entirely necessary. Especially given everything that Anakin has been through the last few days, I'm not sure that parading him around in front of thousands of people is in his benefit. However, I do understand that the people will want to see their heroes in person.
I look forward to seeing you at the ceremony and I know I speak for each and every Nubian when I saw that having you here on our planet is an honor.
Queen Amidala
