Correon,

I am glad to hear of it! Congrads on the marriage! Guess she won your heart as Sara won mine? I wish I could go home myself...events here are not turning towards the better. There is major unrest in the Senate.

I do hope Palpatine can help her. I feel for the girl...her time as Queen has not been easy and I don't forsee it getting any easier either. I trust the man that much I know and I am sure he will be there for her.

He does have charisma...that is for sure. The man will go far if he so wishes too. As for him having anything planned...the possibility is there. I will let you know if he needs assistance.

I agree on the Naboo situation changing things...I think there is something else there...but I can't put my finger on it. Maybe it's just me, but I have to wonder if there is something else.

Yes...I have also noticed the bickering and backstabbing increasing as of late. And it is sad, sad to see things come to be. I never can understand the 'lust for power' or the want to increase one's standing. I'm perfectly happy were I am at. Don't have the need at all to move on up as the saying goes.

I have no idea my friend at how the delegation procedures have slumped so low...I know there are corrupt Senators...always will be. But...has it come so far, Correon? Has the Republic fallen so far down that we will not be able to pick it back up? I truly hope not. I just hope this is just a phase and we will all snap out of it and things will begin to roll smoothely again. Maybe this is a rude awakening to us. Perhaps we need to be more aware of what is around us instead of what is outside the Senate itself.

I don't think Naboo's situation should have gotten this bad. This waiting and waiting... something is not right with it. But I don't know...maybe it's just my nerves. I think I have been spending too much time here. But it has to be done...something has to be resolved and soon.

As for what to do...be there for the girl and for Palpatine is all I can think of. Gather what Senators we know who will support them. When the call comes to help, we'll be ready at least. That is all I can advise on the situation. I am going to have my people ready in case the need arise.

The Chancellor is trying to keep things moving...but Gunray and several allying systems to them are tying to keep it boggle down. I don't see how Valorum can't see that...but he has to give them their time...he has to listen to each one without making it look like he favors one over the other. I don't envy the man. It must be hard...for Finis.

Yes...since you are aware of the 'ambassadors' I will enlighten you. They have been sent. I just haven't heard anything back from what has occurred. Though they are trying to keep it hush-hush because it wasn't Senate approved. The Chancellor is risking a lot by doing this without the consent of the Senate. Though don't get me wrong! I am glad he has done this. Perhaps the Jedi can resolve what we in the Senate can not.

And believe me...I wish this to blow over soon. Sara is missing me and the poor girl is threatening to come here! Can't have that... poor thing and her nerves couldn't handle this. I'll have to ensure she doesn't come. This place would cause what little nerves she has to be frayed.

I should be there at the next session...and the next and the next! Do take care of yourself and give my regards to your wife!

Until the next time...

Bail
