[Padmé has listened to every word the moogles have told her, and it's long after they've left that she finally turns to the oddly-shaped communicator. She's wounded, but she turned down the creatures' offers of help. Whatever pain these wounds might cause her hasn't registered to her; a very large part of her is numb.

She knows the dangers of making a public call for help; if the bounty hunter that's after her made it here as well, she's little more than a sitting target for him without Anakin. But if she doesn't do something, her fears will never be put to rest--or confirmed.

So when she turns on the communicator, she's wearing a grim expression.]

I am Padmé Amidala, a Senator representing the thirty-sixth regional state space of the Galactic Senate. The planet I was on-- [she pauses for hardly a beat, but she can't bring herself to say its name;] --met with misfortune. Though it seems this isn't uncommon, it's imperative that I'm contacted by any Jedi that might have survived.

[She won't name Anakin by name; she can't even attempt it.]

If there are any others that can hear me... Please, tell me what I can do to return that world, and any others in the galaxy. I'd do anything to help them.

The rulers of my people were all elected democratically, and the constitution reflects that only two terms may be served. I learned a lot as a queen, but I'm happier now, in the Senate. I can do more for the people from there.

Do you care about your people? Is that why you chose to serve? It's an admirable quality. I care about my people as well.

I do--more than anything. [She smiles, thinking of them. They have to be all right, wherever they are.] I'm lucky to serve them as I do. I'm sure you're eager to be reunited with them; I feel the same.

It has been a while since I have been back in my home. Agni and I traveled very far. There are times when I miss it. I want them to be well too, so I will be glad when our worlds are back!

Did you live in a big palace when you were Queen?

You had to travel?

[She nods to the rest.]

I did live in one, but my home has always been with my family.
