"As we engage with the wider galaxy, and we begin to look to a future where the AMS virus becomes not just a distant memory, but something we reflect on as a turning point in a new era of Galactic peace, unity and harmony, we can say with one voice, uplifted, together "I was there, when we linked armed, and laid the foundations for a brighter dawn"." Althea stopped, lowering the data slate and drawing a stylus. "It's too showy, soppy even." she said, striking a section from the speech as she did so.
"Maybe that's what it needs, a soft touch, a promise of a better future?" her handmaiden replied. Moreé had always been one for the softer approach, and had been that way ever since she had started in Altheas retinue. This time, maybe she was correct. Undoing her edits, she placed the datapad down. "At the risk of overediting now I think. Best you keep hold of this for now." she handed the datapad to Moreé, and refocused her attention on the mirror.
Standing, back straight and hands clasped together in front of her, Althea cut the very image of Naboo noble, a deep navy blue dress, with a headpiece and bronze disks forming a necklace, she had thin bronze chains draping down her arms, clinging the cloth. She had made a point to avoid purple, the Royal colours, or Red, those most commonly associated these days with the Sith. According to Moreé, each and every item she wore was meticulously picked to set an image of one who was here to talk, to forge a new bond. The silk had come from the Core Worlds, the jewellery from the Free Worlds Alliance - something the eagle-eyed would identify with ease.
"We mustn't screw this up Moreé." she said calmly, straightening her dress, as she turned and headed for the door.
"You never do my Lady." came the reply, as Moreé fell into place behind her, her mistress walking down the corridor and to the entrance lobby of the embassy.
Today's event was a grand one, a reception and dinner, followed by drinks, with representatives of the Free Worlds Alliance, and the New Republic. It was a chance to showcase the merits of the Naboo, and, Moreé was acutely aware, a chance for her to show her own abilities as a diplomat, and advisor, to the Queen herself. Whilst there was no specific purpose to the evenings events, it was none the less a challenge she needed to master.
Moving to her marker by the door, Althea took a deep breath and waited for the first representatives to arrive.
