[One could be hard pressed to realize just what Padmé was thinking, although the signs are there. One's wedding day was supposed to be one of joy, even given the situation she and Anakin were in, and yet, she has no recollection of anything after their kiss. Waking up, her mind had turned over a variety of thoughts, from who and why and where. Yet, despite everything, her person was not harmed.

It is not the first time when life has tossed an obstacle in her path, and yet, she would have to admit that so far, this experience has been a first over all.]

Greetings.

[Her eyes are kind and hers is a soft voice, yet not weak. No, there is a strength behind it, and her expression, while not trusting, does hold an inquisitive air to it. Articulating herself is something that she has always been good at.]

Greetings to those who may hear this, whether fellow travelers caught in the same situation as myself, for I cannot assume I am the only one, or the inhabitants of this world. My name is Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo.

[Information was always key, and so she progresses. She needs to understand better the situation she has found herself in.]

I fear neither the ship or the location are familiar to me as I know this is not one of the worlds I have visited. And so, I ask where I might find information about this planet, and perhaps to whom I should be addressing my disappointment as to the course of action that has been taken.

It most certainly is. The night when it burned and we tried to save as much as we could wasn't very much fun, either.

Was it an accident or on purpose?

There were ongoing riots at the time. There's been some unrest in the city lately, and the arrivals from the ship make an easy target. So yes, it was very much on purpose.

Target, for whom? Others who have been taken, or natives?

The natives. They blame us sometimes for things that happen here, saying that there were never problems until we started arriving. Whether that's true or not though none of us are causing these things, and none of us asked to be here.

No. That should be understood by them, although sometimes it is hard for people to be understanding.

Sometimes, yes. It can be very hard. Still, that doesn't make things for us here and now any easier.

No, it wouldn't.

Sorry. Perhaps these are not the type of things you would like to be hearing about so soon after your arrival, but I also believe there is no point in putting off the inevitable.

Speaking the truth is never something you need apologize for. I may not like it, but that does not change the situation. I would prefer it to a lie.

Quite right. At least now, if nothing else, you know what to prepare yourself for.

But to answer your original query...I know several people from the ship that have come into owning property have been offering up rooms, either for rent or a temporary stay. You might start at a pub downtown called Callahan's, and then go from there.

Thank you. I will.
