Timeframe: From just before the start of TPM through ROTS events

The quick background story of the Bail and Correon PT Notes-
In my stories, Bail Antilles and Bail Organa are the same person, and Bail will change his last name to Organa later in the story. The Captain Antilles in ROTS and mentioned in ANH is Bail's cousin, with the same first and last name (Bail Antilles).

Bail and Correon are both Senators in the Republic Senate. Correon has been newly elected, and is quickly forming a close friendship with Bail.

They begin discussing current events in the Senate, when the story begins...

Note 1:
Bail,

How are things going? I heard that there are a lot of problems in the Senate right now with the Trade Federation and some planet called Naboo. Is this true? What is the Senate doing with the problem? Senator Palpatine must be very distressed with the entire situation. Well I’m sure you’re busy, so I’ll talk to you later.

Yours,

Correon

Note 2
Correon,

It has been a while since I've talked with you last. I do hope things are well with you?

As for the Naboo issue...yes unfortunately the Trade Federation has been stirring up trouble and it has caused problems in the Senate. Sometimes I wonder about the delegation procedures...I would think that something this serious wouldn't keep being put on hold. But that is politics for you.

Yes, Senator Palpatine seems stressed out. If anything I would feel sorry for the planet's Queen. I am hoping to find out more about what is going on eventually. I do believe the Chancellor has some idea about working it out, but I am not 100% sure as to what it will be exactly. I have to admit though...it sure has the Senate boggled down.

Write when you can! I look forward to hearing from you again, this has given me a few minutes to relax.

Good to hear from you, my friend.

Bail

Note 3:
Bail,

Yes, it has been a while since we have talked. Yes, everything seems to be going well with me at the moment. I am happily married to a beautiful woman, events are fairly calm on my own planet….I just wish that this Trade Federation dispute would end.

True…Palpatine may be stressed, but Queen Amidala should hold everyone’s sympathy.
It is such a misfortune that this had to happen to such a young queen. Senator Palpatine knows what he’s doing, and I’m sure he will help Amidala make wise choices. I do not know Palpatine well….I have only had the pleasure of greeting him and hearing him speak in the Senate. He is a great speaker, and is quite intelligent. His reputation follows him. So you think that he has something planned? Well, let me know if he needs any help.

This situation with Naboo seems to have changed everything…even I have noticed, and I have not been a Senator for long. Senators that were generally friendly and respectful to one another are colder and…and…something that I can’t describe is happening. It saddens me to see Senators turn on each other, and argue so violently. You know, I think you’re right…I am beginning to wonder about the delegation procedures as well. However did this happen? This situation with Naboo shouldn’t have gotten to this point. What do you think we can do on Naboo’s behalf?

This situation is obviously important, but I wonder….with the Senate so bogged down with this, are other situations being ignored?

I hope that the Jedi Council found the ambassadors, and that they have been sent already. The sooner this is over, the sooner I can go home and see my wife.

It has been good to hear from you as well.

I guess I will see you for the next Senate discussion.


Correon

Note 4
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

Note 5
Senator Bail,

Thank you. Yes, my wife won my heart.first, and then I had to win hers. The pleasure and honor of that, Bail, well you know what that is like. I cannot think of something as enjoyable.

There has been no mention of the Jedi. What could be possibly be taking the Jedi so long. Senator Palpatine has mentioned to a few other Senators that he fears the worst…that the Jedi are dead.

Palpatine seems to be capable of handling the situation, though there appears to be something on his mind…sometimes I can see a glimpse of it in the Senate session. He has been rather uptight with me. I tried to speak with him. His concern is very noble.

Charisma is something Palpatine has been gifted with. I agree with you there. I hope that his situation on Naboo does not cause him to retire from politics…oh the stress this would bring him! This may hinder his otherwise rise in influence…but then again, he has generated quite a bit of sympathy. Thank you. If he needs assistance, I am available.

You are not alone. I think there is something else going on in the Naboo situation/Senate…disturbing…so much seems to be happening, and so quickly! I can’t keep up with all these proceedings.

The lust for power, I can understand it to a degree. Power does make me feel special…ever since I have been a Senator, I have been looked at differently than before. It is not wrong to enjoy power, as long as we take the responsibility seriously that goes with it. Power is not something I am after either. The Senate is as far as I ever wish to go….sometimes I even wonder if the Senate is too far for me.

But to cut others down, to backstab and destroy friendships, to gossip and make others look bad, only to appear better in front of others…to gain power, is a total perversion. It appears as if the changes have been so gradual that they slipped passed our notice until we were faced with such a situation as the one on Naboo.

We need to wake up, and get some reorganizing done in this Senate, set new guidelines. The old ones seem to have expired their use. Has there ever been talk about revamping the Senate? I do not believe we are past the point of no return yet. We wait, and keep things as they are, and we may reach that point. I am in agreement with you…this is a rude awakening for us. If something’s not done, I am afraid of what will happen. We have been far too concerned and distracted with events outside of the Senate, and I fear, we truly have ignored what has been going on inside of the Senate.

With the Jedi missing, this situation seems to have gone from bad to worse. Maybe we will hear from the Jedi soon.

We should discuss this with Senator Palpatine…see if he can organize a group of Senators in his favor, and then come up with some plan to break through this waiting period. Not many other Senators know me; I doubt that they would listen to me. If Palpatine were behind it, I think he would be able to organize something.

I will have my people ready too…in case the need arises. Preparation is the key at this point, I would think.

So I have noticed…Gunray and his allies have been introducing motion after motion. There have been so many motions introduced lately, and not just by Gunray and his allies, but by other Senators who do not seem to be connected with the Trade Federation. What was the report this morning? Something about the Maurder Organization capturing an entire royal family from a planet in the Outer Rim? I worry for my family.

Then there was a problem that the Banking Clan introduced today, one system making counterfeit money, and the fight between those two Senators. Those things were just this morning!

I suppose it is only fair that the Supreme Chancellor listen to each Senator in session, but it seems to me as if something should be set in place, a committee or something, to funnel issues, but then things might not get discussed openly. Sigh…I don’t know about this.

As far as I know the ambassadors have not arrived to Naboo yet…although it seems they should have by now. The queen, from what I’ve heard, is handling the situation in a very mature way. So far she seems to be remaining focused on this task, and appears to be taking it well. It probably is very hard. She’ll need as much help as she can get. She does need help from other Senators besides just Palpatine. Have you offered your help?

Thank you for explaining to me more about the ambassadors. I know the Supreme Chancellor’s move was not approved by the Senate, but you would we would hear something about the situation. I too am glad that he has involved the Jedi…because this may be the only way that anything gets done.

Your wife Sara is threatening to come here? Oh…what this must be doing to my own wife! Well, maybe my wife could visit your wife, and the two could keep each other company. I believe they have been introduced. If not, you have my permission to introduce my wife to your wife.

Well let me know if you’ve heard anything.

Thank you. The same back to you.

Your friend,
Senator Correon

Note 6
Correon,

So she had yours first? Women seem to have that affect on people don't they? Steal your heart then you have to try and steal theirs. Oh yes...I know what it is like, and I thank whomever made it possible for me and Sara to meet. That woman has been my lifeline from the get go.

We have discovered that the Trade Federation (supposedly) has taken over Naboo. The Jedi were able to free the Queen before fleeing the planet. Though their ship was damaged and they had to make a stop on Tatooine prior to coming here. There is to be an immediate meeting on this and the Chancellor has called it.

I just hope Finis can resolve this...they have proof now as to how far this has gotten. Terrible, my friend, terrible! It appears they were demanding the girl to sign a treaty giving the Trade Federation rights over Naboo! I feel for Palpatine now. He doesn't think that the Chancellor is going to handle this right. This isn't looking all that well, the Senate will be in an uproar over this. I have a bad feeling that this will become a turning point for the Republic...and not a good one.

I think the Senate is about to wake up and smell the caf, but not in a good way.

Correon...I'm worried at how this is going to turn out. I'll be heading for the meeting here shortly. I just hope whatever happens happens for the best. We must keep the people in mind...but with the other Senators do that? There are so many who are out for themselves and not for the people. I can't understand sometimes my friend...at how they think like that. Why? Why do they let greed and power corrupt them so?

Palpatine has already started a rallying of sorts. But he wants to out Finis...he is going to talk the Queen into a vote of no confidence. I surely hope it doesn't come to that. This will be devastating to the Republic...let alone Finis. He doesn't deserve that! He has tried his best! He can't help it if the other Senators are riled up against him. What leader doesn't have a few out there that are out to get him or her in some way?

I am worried...I will admit to that. I am not looking forward to this meeting, then again I am. I truly hope Naboo can be freed. But I have a feeling that this is going to go further than Naboo. That Naboo will only be the start of this.

Gunray. That one needs something...listen to me! This isn't like me to talk down fellow delegates. But something is amiss and I am unsure as what this turn out will be. Usually I can somewhat get an idea on how events will be played out. But this time...this time I am truly clueless.

That would be great if your wife could visit mine. Let me know what she says and if she wants to I will inform Sara so she knows to look forward to meeting her at the landing platform near the palace.

I can only hope for the best on this meeting...may whatever gods be out there shine for us, otherwise things could get ugly pretty darn quick.

Senator Antilles

Note 7
Senator Bail,

I have told Senator Palpatine that I am willing to offer my assistance in this terrible situation. Things are looking bad for Naboo. You tell me that the Trade Federation has supposedly taken over Naboo?

The Jedi are alive and rescued the Queen? Good!!!!!!!

They’re on their way to Coruscant? I can’t wait to see them. I hope that everything works out for her and that she gets here soon. I was very glad to hear that the Queen is on her way here.

So their ship was damaged beyond repair and they had to land on a planet called Tatooine? Do you know when they’ll be able to get the replacement parts for the ship? I hope soon so that they can come here.

If you hear anything, be sure to let me know.

Well I look forward to meeting the Queen and hearing her position on the situation, just as I am sure everyone else is too.

Yes, I was attracted to my wife the moment I met her, and my love for her grew…and I desired nothing less than for her to be my wife. I suppose that is how love works, eh? Yes, but pursuing her was the most honorable thing I have had the pleasure of doing. Sounds like you had a similar experience with Sara.

The proof…the knowledge that this situation has gotten so far out of control, seems to be ignored by other Senators. Many question the validity, or whether the Senate should even make an issue of this.

No, we cannot allow this to continue. How can a perfectly sovereign planet be handed over to a greedy group called the Trade Federation? If Palpatine doesn’t think the Chancellor will act on this, what does he suggest be done about it? Yes, this does seem to be a turning point, but perhaps we are overreacting. Maybe this will all come to past, and will be forgotten within a year.

The current events of late also concern me, but hopefully all will turn out well. This is a test of democracy, a test for the Republic. If it functions as we always hoped it would, it should be strong enough to hold this situation.

We can only hope that what the corrupt Senators are will be clearly seen by the rest, and by their people, and other, non-corrupt Senators will be able to take their place. We must work to expose them.

You are sure that Palpatine wants to out Finis? Are you certain that he desires to talk the Queen into calling a vote of no confidence? Surely there must be another way around this issue. Finis is a good man, who has a lot to deal with at the moment. I believe he is trying his best. He cannot do this alone. Maybe…maybe a committee should be formed to help advise him, to help him work through these rough issues.

You’re right…no matter how great a leader, how good a person, how dedicated someone is to a position, someone is always going to be there who has something against a specific individual. It is very sad.

The issue certainly touches something deeper than Naboo…it touches the ability for the Senate to function, the integrity of Senators individually, and priority of things…

I suppose nothing can be made clear until the Queen arrives.

I have contacted my wife, and she has agreed to visit yours. She seemed to take to the idea very well. Please inform your wife that mine will be coming tomorrow morning.

Well, here we are, getting ready for another Senate meeting. I will talk to you later.


Senator Correon

Note 8
Correon,

Well it does appear that the Trade Federation has taken over…otherwise this vote of no confidence would not have gone through. Let me tell you my friend…I have no idea if this was good or bad. I am unsettled at this whole mess. Like I was telling Sara…I am uncertain as to what to do. And that disturbs me. I have never been like this.

Yes, the Jedi returned with the Queen. She was granted an immediate session with the Senate and that’s when Palpatine probably talked with her about a no confidence vote. I don’t know what to do about this…not really. I was a good friend with Finis and his family and I hate to see this happen. It tore him up! Did you not see his face when the Queen spoke up about the vote? And the fact that it went through! I don’t know…

The Jedi have pledged to help with the Naboo situation, so that is all well and good. Hopefully this will be resolved soon and maybe the Senate will slowly return to its routine…not that I’m thinking it will. I am afraid that this is the beginning of a change of events that we are not ready for.

I assume they were able to get the parts needed…something about a pod race won by a boy. So who knows about that, though it makes for a good chuckle I guess. The boy must be special indeed if he won something like that. Those races are dangerous!

Well I only got to see her in passing, not really talk with her. And there is a rumor that she’s leaving again for Naboo with the two Jedi that were with her earlier. So perhaps things will be resolved indeed soon.

I am so happy for you, my friend! Women sometimes are what keep us going. Let me tell you…if it wasn’t for Sara, sometimes I think I would go nuts!

Oh yes…with me and Sara it was nearly love at first sight and then it went from there. We are and have been so lucky.

I agree…it was all out there in the open, but the Senators did not acknowledge it! I have no idea why not…I swear sometimes these people get to me more than they should.

Things have gone downhill. I just hope that once this Trade Federation problem is resolved that things will settle down. Perhaps we can return to our regular schedules, but I highly doubt it. I don’t want to sound so pessimistic, but if we can be blindsided by something as this…what does that imply for future problems?

I too, hope that the corrupted senators will be seen and weeded out. When the new Chancellor is elected…maybe, just maybe this might be done. But we can only hope, right?

As you can see…it did come down to the Vote. Sadly enough…

Yes…and Finis became the brunt of this situation. They used this problem to down play him and man did they do just that!

I hope changes do happen, but for the better, because if they turn for the worse. I don’t know, Correon…I don’t think the Republic could handle it if it gets much worse. I mean look at what this one incident caused and could still even cause further problems!

I have told Sara to expect her. She is all excited. I thank you for this…it will help her out probably help our wife out as well. Since neither of us are able to be with them due to all these meetings.

Well write when you can, I know all about these meetings… they’re having one here in a second to decide who can possibly be up for taking Finis’ place. I believe this is so wrong…but what can just two of us really do in a moment like this?

Bail

Note 9
Senator Bail Antilles,

I too had heard that Queen Amidala and the others that she was with…had arrived by now. We heard her speak in the Senate session. Can you believe it? I have not gotten the opportunity to talk with her, because when I visited Palpatine’s office, he was occupied, probably with talking to Queen Amidala. I am sure they have much to talk about. Palpatine should be updated about the situation with his planet.

Maybe I will get a chance to speak with her now that the special session of the Senate is over. Have you had the opportunity that I have not (in speaking with Queen Amidala.) There was rumored to be a little boy with Queen Amidala who had been a former slave, and somehow as able to help the Queen. I did not manage to catch a glimpse of the boy either. He must be a pretty special boy.

I heard that Qui-Gon freed the boy? That’s pretty amazing. I wonder what motivated him to do that…I mean I do not like to think of people in slavery, but what would cause him to free the boy and take him to Coruscant? It makes little sense.

Yes, I too was excited about the Senate session as well. Queen Amidala was a good speaker, and we were all anxious to hear her speak…for so long we heard others speak of her and her situation. We finally have an opportunity to speak with her in person, if we could just get to her.

Were you able to speak with Palpatine this morning? If so, how did you catch him? He has been so busy lately.

I’ve heard that the little boy’s name is Anakin Skywalker. That’s an unusual name…I mean Anakin is. Skywalker is such a common last name…this boy sounds like a really great person….such a generous little boy. I heard he was perfectly all right about giving the money to Qui-Gon. This galaxy has very few children that would do that. Anakin must be a truly special boy. I also understand that it was his idea to race for the money for the parts? That boy must have a big heart. I hope that he never changes.

From the desperation in Queen Amidala’s voice, I believe that she was stating the truth. How was this not obvious to other Senators? She made a move that she would not have made if it were not the truth. She called for the vote of no confidence in Chancellor Valorum, as you pointed out. I was surprised that no one spoke up against it. I was about to, but no one would have been able to hear me. Nothing mattered after that action was made. Before I could say anything, the motion was seconded, and thirded…and from the manner that the Senators conducted themselves in, I knew the vote would go through.

Congratulations on your nomination. Your reform work must have spread across the Senate. If you are elected, perhaps we can DO something in the Senate to stop all this corruption.

I also find this business unsettling, but what can we do? You are now nominated, and so we must move forward.

You believe that Palpatine might have talked with Queen Amidala about offering a vote of no confidence. Why would he call for it…he must have felt his situation was desperate.

I didn’t manage to see Finis’ face at the call of the vote of no confidence. However, I saw his face later, and I can affirm your words that he has been torn up by what happened. Will he serve as a regular Senator, you think, or do you think his political career is finished?

The Jedi will continue to help with the Naboo situation, you say? If you are elected Supreme Chancellor, the Senate may take a turn for the better. Of course Palpatine was also nominated. Although I do not know the man well, he seems genuinely concerned about the growing corruption, and has experienced first hand what happens when the Senate ignores an important issue on a specific planet. His own people are suffering now. You mentioned that something about if there is no improvement, you are worried that this may be the start of a chain of events we are not ready for. While I see this being possible, I don’t believe we will come to see this. The Republic will be in good hands with either you or Palpatine as the Supreme Chancellor.

There is a rumor that the Queen may be leaving Coruscant soon? I hope not…it will be dangerous for her to go back to Coruscant.

We will just have to hope that events turn for the better. Tell me what Sara says about my wife coming to visit her. This get together provides comfort and support for them, which is important for them.

Great indepth discussion about politics and corruption. I liked how they lightened the mood by talking about the women in their lives.

Anakin_Heartbreaker,

Thanks happy

The discussion is important so that you know how at least two Senators see the situation

Yep...the women in their lives are very important. I'm really glad that you enjoyed that part too.

thanks for reading!

Note 10
Correon,

I am so astounded that the Senate didn’t do anything…or even really try to help the Queen out. I can’t believe it…have we’ve fallen so far, my friend?

I would have assumed that she and Palpatine worked this out…sad to see the Chancellor go. Finis is such a great man…

Were you able to talk with her before she left? I just found out that she was heading back to Naboo. Can you believe that? I can’t…what is with her? She is putting her life in danger going back there! But if she is doing it for the people, then that is admirable…if foolish.

I haven’t heard much on the child that was with her and the Jedi. Perhaps the youth is Force sensitive? That could be a reason why he freed the child.

It doesn’t make much sense to me either…I didn’t think Jedi adopted children. But if he is Force sensitive…then again don’t they only get babies normally?

I was amazed at how passionate she was when she spoke. She indeed loves her people, it was obvious! If only we had more people like her. We would be able to get more things accomplished in the Senate.

Yes I was only able to get a few words with Palpatine. I’ve told him that we would help him out if he needed it. Now that he is up for Chancellor, if he wins we can still assist him.

Skywalker? Yeah that might be his name. I’ve not really paid much attention to that, but I am glad you have. That was awfully generous of him to offer that! He sounds special. There should be more like him out there.

I could not believe it either, Correon. How could they allow what has happened to continue? Did they not believe her? I could not believe that Finis didn’t speak out…that puzzled me greatly. She was brave in issuing the vote. Sad…but brave.”

I was taken back by my nomination… I do hope either myself of Palpatine gets it. Either way we will work to fix the wrongs of the Senate. That is the most important part that needs to be done.

We will campaign our ideas. We must let others know that the corruption must end and quickly before it gets any worse.

I have no idea why Palpatine would have called for it…unless the situation on Naboo is even worse than what the Queen stated. Perhaps the two panicked? I’m not sure why he would have allowed her to make such a call unless things were really bad.

I wouldn’t doubt it…then man has accomplished so much for the Senate. It isn’t his fault it is beginning to fail. Some things have been overlooked or hidden from him. He is just one man after all.

I’m not sure if he could do anything else…I would assume he could if he wanted to. But this was a terrible blow to him. I truly hope his wife will be able to comfort him. Politics has been his life ever since his junior days. He enjoyed the work…I truly hope things go well for him. I am going to attempt to stay in contact with him if at all possible.

If I am elected, I will attempt to help her as well. This is ridiculous allowing the Trade Federation to get out of hand. They have been a thorn in the Senate’s side for way too long…

I truly hope Palpatine thinks the way we do. He does seem concerned about the corruption getting out of hand. Who knows, perhaps we can find an alley with him in this struggle. Once the election is over with I will attempt to talk with him on this matter.

I truly hope things don’t worsen, my friend. I do not think the Republic could handle it. Perhaps it is just a slip…maybe we will come back from this and learn from this mishap. I can only hope we learn from our mistakes in order to not repeat them.

Yes…she is leaving all ready. I had hoped she wouldn’t. I think it is foolish of her, as I stated earlier.

Sara has enjoyed your wife’s company! In her last letter she talked of her. She likes her very much and it appears that the two are conspiring to do something when things settle down in the Senate for us.

Thank you so much for allowing her to travel to Alderaan. She has brightened my wife’s spirits. She is a sensitive soul and is worried about me, with your wife keeping her company she has something else to think on.


Bail

Bail,

No matter how far we have fallen, we still have a chance to repair and improve the Republic. We should not forget this.

Well…Senator Palpatine has been elected Supreme Palpatine. Whoops, I mean Supreme Chancellor. I hope he can talk with Finis and ease any tension that might be between them. Have you heard any more of what Finis’ plans are? Is he leaving Coruscant?

Unfortunately, I was unable to talk with Queen Amidala before she left the planet. She did so in a hurried manner, and the next thing I knew, she was gone. I believe the Jedi that were with her before left with her, as well as that little boy. I hope all goes well for her on Naboo.

She cannot be walking into a pleasant situation. The Trade Federation will likely capture or kill her. Her life is in danger, but there is nothing we can do about it. We must trust in the Jedi’s ability to protect her. I believe it to have been for her people.

I have heard that the Jedi only accept children two years of age or younger, and the younger the better. Would they accept a boy who already has experienced life the way he has. He is a former slave. I don’t understand their reasoning. Perhaps they will make an exception for this boy, though it may not be wise. Or it could be possible that the Jedi will look for a job for him.

Yes, if only there were Senators like Queen Amidala…corruption would not be such an issue.

Now that Palpatine has won, how do you think we can assist the man?

Yes, it is more important that the Senate be fixed than who is actually in the Supreme Chancellor position. That position only overseas the meetings of the Senate. It is not as if he can make decisions without consulting the Senate…so in some ways he has his hands tied as to how much he can really do. However, with the right leadership, he may be able to convince people that a change needs to be made.

Even though you did not win, we still need to campaign our ideas and get a group of people together.

The situation on Naboo must be VERY bad. Yes, the two of them could have panicked and thought that was the best action at the time. You’re right….things on Naboo must be VERY, VERY bad.

Yes, stay in contact with Valorum and find out what he plans to do now. He is a good man, and it would do us good to remain in contact with him, whether or not he remains on Coruscant.

Have you talked with Palpatine about the corruption and our plans yet? If so, what was his reaction…what does he think? Do you think we can rely on him to help us make the changes necessary in the Senate?

We need to support and encourage Palpatine. There is much change to be done, but it will take a lot of time and effort. We can’t let Palpatine get discouraged by all this corruption. Let us make sure he knows we will support him.

Good. I am glad that my wife has been of comfort to your wife. Ah…if our wives our conspiring to do things when we settle down in the Senate, we will be in good hands. I can only wonder what the two are up to.

You are quite welcome. Not only did it help put my own mind at ease…as I long to please my wife and know that she is happy, cared for, and protected. I was looking out for my own wife as much as I was hoping that it would help your wife.

I will speak with you later.


Correon

Note 12
Correon,

And that my friend is what keeps me going. We have to look at the brighter side of things. Even through the darkest days...there is always a light somewhere shining, ready to be a beacon of hope. That is what we will have to continue to strive for. Otherwise, if we let hope die...then the galaxy is doomed.

Finis doesn't know what he will do. But he is going to take a small break, that much I was told. His wife and family will need to recover from this. I do feel for him and his family. It is sad...I truly hope the best for him.

That is all right...let us just pray that she makes it there all right and that things will work out in the end.

I trust the Jedi. I've never found myself not trusting them. I am sure that the two will help her out and protect her from harm if at all possible.

It is puzzling that they would want to train the boy...for I too have heard that the Jedi take them as babes normally. Perhaps the child is special...or somebody's long lost son? Perhaps we'll find out eventually.

I truly feel for the girl...I do want this resolved if anything for her sake and Naboo's. The embargo needs to end...it is ridiculous that it had gotten that far out of hand.

We can assist by presenting our notions and seeing if he agrees or if we can help him with what ideas he has.

I truly hope that Palpatine is the right man. He seems well enough and dedicated to the cause of getting rid of the wrongs that has been rising up in the Senate. Let's just pray that it will be worked...and soon.

I agree whole heartedly! We should still work together as well as with the other Senators who back us in our ideas. We must rid the corruption in the Senate or things will only get worse.

I wonder about that...I would hope that was the reason why they did put in for the vote of no confidence. That can be the only possible way that I see...

Finis said that he will keep in touch; he is still worried and will attempt to help if at all possible. He mentioned that he needs to lay low for a while before committing himself to our ideas. He was in agreement with our plans and regretted that he wasn't able to start in on that prior to his unseating.

Palpatine is all for ending the corruption. I had a few minutes of his time before he had to rush off for a meeting.

I have also sent him a message ensuring that the two of us will back him on those matters. I truly hope that we can resolve these harsh times...I am not overly fond of what has been transpiring and I hope that we can end the corruption with his help.

I too, wonder what they've come up with. I don't know about your wife...but Sara can be really scary sometimes when it comes to planning! But in a good way though.

Well it looks like our women are having fun and enjoying themselves quite well. I am relieved as well, believe me. Sara was fretting all too much over me. But then again...that is one of the reasons I love her so dearly.

Until our next transmission my friend,

Bail
