Padmé is adjusting to being a wartime senator during the Clone Wars. Her secret husband, Anakin Skywalker, excels at being a wartime Jedi. In contrast, Padmé is horrified by the casualties on the war-torn front lines. Meanwhile, Padmé’s handmaiden Sabé steps into the role of Senator Amidala. Sabé is equally horrified by the machinations that happen there. She comes face-to-face with a gut-wrenching decision as she realizes she cannot fight a war this way, not even for Padmé. Chancellor Palpatine hovers over it all, manipulating everyone to his own ends… The stakes have never been higher for the galaxy.
