Qui-Gon is like us, he loves to read probably why he knows so
much about the Whills. nerd

I hope he enjoys himself on Naboo. cool

My title during the ceremony will be Officiator of the Peace and my duties are to lead the ceremony through its proceedings. After the ceremony there is a feast known as the Feast of Memories where all join together and remember what has brought them to this day and where they will be headed in the future.

It sounds very reflective and uplifting for the soul.

I hope it is as enjoyable as the information makes it sound.


Oh yes, that's Qui-Gon! love

applause

I agree with the others. This entry, like the others, was very much in keeping with Qui-Gon's character. I especially liked his discipline and self-restraint in this entry - appreciating the "luxury" of the ship for what it was, but understanding that there was work to be done, etc.

Lovely entry! applause

Ok, I must admit you almost had me falling off the chair there.
Queen Camillia? Do you realise how weird it is to see a name that close to your own in a story??!!


Anyway, loved it. grin

My title during the ceremony will be Officiator of the Peace and my duties are to lead the ceremony through its proceedings.
Why do I get this weird feeling that everything that can go wrong will go wrong?? tongue

I'm glad Qui-Gon allowed himself some time to enjoy the pleasures aboard the ship.

And I'm not a bit surprised he is preparing himself so well.

I just hope he enjoys the ceremony...at least a little bit.

Great update

Valairy_Scot Of course Qui-Gon would enjoy something like that with his personality grin Though you're very right that he might not enjoy as much what he finds. We'll just have to wait and see happy Thanks for reading!

Gkilkenny He does like to read a lot happy I can't say that I blame him wink I think he'll enjoy himself a great deal, then again never know! whistling Thanks for reading!

VaderLVR64 Glad you think so grin Thanks for reading!

jedidas3 Yep, you'll have to wait and see wink Thanks for reading!

Gina Thank you! I'm glad I'm keeping him in character, it's tough sometimes. I would think that discipline and self-restraint would've been drilled into him at a very early age, especially with Dooku as his Master. I'm glad you liked it happy Thanks for reading !

Qui-Gina-Jinn Actually I had her name as Camilla originally because that's how my spell check corrected it, but I thought it might weird you out tongue Your name was the inspiration, it seemed a Nubian type name. Hope you don't mind wink As far as a weird feeling, I just have no idea! whistling Thanks for reading!

Kelia He did enjoy himself wink He just knows not to go overboard, as far as the ceremony, well we'll just have to see! Thanks for reading!

Cole_Kenobi Well, you might have to wait for just a little bit more wink Hope you enjoy this entry anyway happy Thanks for reading!

A/N: Ruwee and Winama belong to Uncle George. All the rest of the Naberries belong to me. grin





Entry Fourteen


I've arrived on Naboo.

It actually did not take that long in flight, a three day journey is more than reasonable for a mission, especially with such appointed travel accommodations.

As I got off the ship, a small crowd had gathered to greet me. Darius Palpatine, of course, among those present, along with the reigning monarch, Queen Maila Callet, her handmaidens and my host family, the Naberries.

After the arrival period and initial greeting, I was given a two hour break to rest and refresh myself, and the Naberries graciously welcomed me into their home and I was introduced to the rest of the family. Winama and her husband Ruwan, are caring for Winama's elderly parents. Her parents are nearing eighty, yet seem to have a good bit of energy still, as her mother, Naruth bustled around the kitchen, making preparations for tomorrow's feast.

I don't mind admitting, at least here, that my stomach growled just smelling it all, but I digress.

They also have two children, four-and-a-half-year-old Saré and an eight-month-old son, Ruwee.

As soon as the introductions were over, Saré, who decided her mother's tour had not been good enough, accosted me taking my hand and leading me on the grand tour of their home, showing me everything from the kitchens to the freshers, closets, the guest quarters and basements.

She is very well spoken for one of her age, and it was a very thorough tour.

I assured her she had my thanks and she gave the most amusing little curtsy, as if I were royalty, before leading me back to my room, where I decided to sit on the balcony and enjoy the breeze, and the warmth of the sunshine on my face lulled me into a light nap.

It's too bad that all missions can't be this nice, but I suppose if there were, we would not appreciate the ones like this.

Naboo is such a wonderful planet.

I know I said that in my last entry, but now that I'm here, I can feel the Living Force even more strongly around me. It's just so restful of a place.

I'll have to remember to thank Palpatine for suggesting that I come. He was right; I had been on Coruscant much too long.

It's nice to be somewhere so peaceful as Naboo.

I have another one of those feelings...it's not going to be peaceful for long, is it? worried

Another great update. I'm am thoroughly enjoying reading Qui-Gon's diary. You have such a marvelous handle on his character! I can't wait for the next entry.

Wonderful update.
Love how Qui-Gon meets the Naberrie family and the way he feels about Naboo love
Why do I still have that feeling that 'peaceful Naboo' will not remain as peaceful? raised_brow


Oh and, Actually I had her name as Camilla originally because that's how my spell check corrected it, but I thought it might weird you out Your name was the inspiration, it seemed a Nubian type name. Hope you don't mind
Of course I don't mind! I'm flattered! blush hugs

I'm not surprised Qui-Gon feels more connected to the living Force on Naboo. It is a beautiful planet.

Nice to see the Naberries make an appearance.

Great update

He sounds at peace on Naboo, and fancy thinking about thanking Palpatine.

It gives me shivers to think that one day Palpatine will be the cause of his death.

Excellent update. applause

Wonderful update!

Aw! I now have a mental picture of a tiny, insistive little girl dragging huge, gentle Qui-Gon all around a house. tongue Downright adorable! love And a very good job at describing the family household. Homey, sweet, but realistic. happy

I am also having that feeling... It won't be peaceful for long, will it?

Grr! Thank Palpatine. BAH! Stop saying such things, Qui-Gon! It'll get you killed! (literally...)

Again, Amazing update, Master! grin Hope to see some more entries soon!

applause applause applause

Aw, I did indeed like this piece. Thank you for posting. happy Liked the little lesson about how the sweet is not as sweet without the sour, in different words.

Hehe, yay for sunlight and little children, and naps on a veranda, the joys of life. lol :P
