Trandosha

Walking down the landing ramp of her Nubian-class starship felt awkward to Senator Padme Amidalla. Not because of the welcoming party gathered to greet her in Trandosha's capital city of Hsskhor. Not because of the fact that the planet's air was horribly warm and humid. No, she felt so awkward because she was still walking bow-legged from her adventure the previous night on Kashyyyk.

"So good to see you again Senator Hadocrassk," Padme greeted her fellow senator. Her handmaiden Dorme and her personal security advisor Captain Typho joined her at the foot of the landing ramp.

Hadocrassk introduced Padme to his fellow reptilian delegates joining him at the star port. Vultar, Trandosha's chief of finance. Jossk, the leader of Trandosha's parliament. Pertsnik, mayor of Hsskhor. Crovessk, president of Trandosha's largest corporation, Revessa Global Shipping. And Tusserk, head of the Trandoshan courts.

Accompanied by Captain Typho, Padme was lead throughout the high-rises of Hsskhor on her tour of the exquisite city. After a couple of hours, the group settled in to discuss the upcoming galactic senate economic reform bill.

Over the next six hours, Senator Amidala and the Trandoshans fiercely debated and argued. It didn't take a hyperdrive-scientist to tell Padme that things weren't going well. The Trandoshans just simply refused to bend or compromise.

The two parties separated and headed in their opposite directions with nothing resolved. Padme felt nothing but frustration as she and Typho head back towards the ship. She didn't know what to do and she felt like she wanted to leave Trandosha then and their.
