Note 23
Nine years after the Trade Federation Invasion of Naboo
One year later
Mace Windu,
Do we know what's going on with Dooku and the Trade Federation and their Separatist group? Why doesn't the Trade Federation get rid of their battle droids? Do you think Dooku will really remain true to his Jedi teachings? If he does, I'd be amazed. I know you don't like paying attention to politics, but a lot of systems have joined the Separatists.
Yes, I know that words can stop wars before they begin, but do we really know that Dooku is planning a war? And can we really trust him?
Yes, all of the negotiations missions we've gone on have been boring. All we ever do is talk, talk, talk……while the entire galaxy seems to be about to fall apart. I can't take it much longer.
Nu told me that all of the artifacts on both Dantooine and QuiQue are fakes. It seems that someone has been trying to mislead us. I don't like this, and I think we've been approaching this subject wrongly.
Obi-Wan told me that he thinks that Dooku might be in contact with the Sith Lord because of his tie to the Trade Federation. He just might not know that the person is a Sith Lord. Do you think that's possible?
He also told me that someone killed a bunch of Padme's guards. Do you think she's safe?
I'll talk to you later.
