Kylo Ren said no I won’t stop at lamely copying my grandfather I’m also going to imitate my grandmother by invading Naboo and appointing myself ruler of the planet, ruining the longstanding tradition of democratically elected monarchy. What a loser.

The Wartime Queen Neeyutnee

Neeyutnee ruled during the Clone Wars, which are symbolized via a Gungan energy shield and royal sword. Behind her is a vase with red flowers, which are called ‘Queen’s Heart’. This is a word play regarding her position and attitude. She longed for peace and hated the war (thus she is not holding any weapon), but both shield and sword are close by, to show that the Queen is ready to protect her people and will reach for them when required.

She relied on insight and experience offered by Senator Padmé Amidala, who found her place on the painting in form of small statue.

Sunset Queens - Chapter 2

For Day 2 of the Naboo Review - Royalty

Chapter 1

on Ao3

Padme wanders through the corridors of Theed Palace, a sense of nostalgia filling her. She hasn’t been back to Naboo in far to long. She’s been so deep in senate committees and political activism on Coruscant that she hasn’t had any time to return to her homeland. Well, no time to return other than her visit with Ani a couple months ago, but they had spent almost no time in Theed at all, and definitely hadn’t spent any time walking these long, familiar hallways.

Now that the war has broken out, returning to one’s home planet has become something of a political statement. Coming to important events means that you believe in the strength of your homeworld, and it also means that if something happens to your people, you’ll be there beside them. It means you’re not Orn Free Ta.

Even if that weren’t true, Padme would have returned for this week anyways. As a former queen of Naboo, it’s important for her to be present at the coronation for the new queen, especially since Queen Neeyutnee defeated Queen Jamillia, who is a well-known friend and political ally of Padme’s. If Padme had skipped this event, it would have sent the message that there was bitterness between the two administrations.

Padme stops herself mid-stride as she realizes she’s about to turn down the hallway that leads to the quarters of the current queen. That’s not Padme anymore. Logically, Padme knows she’s been not the queen far longer than she was ever the queen, but on some level, being back in the palace makes her feel like she still is. The act of turning down the hallway to the quarters provided for the senator suddenly feels overwhelming wrong, even though, logically, Padme knows that’s where her stuff is and where she’s been sleeping all week now.

“Glad to know I’m not the only one totally overwhelmed.” Padme turns in confusion to see queen-elect Neeyutnee approaching from behind her. It takes a moment for Padme to understand what the other girl is talking about, before she really looks at where she’s standing, and realizes that from the outside, it looks like she has been staring intently at the bust of Queen Yram in front of her. Padme is about to say something to correct the queen-elect, probably something about the passage of time that Padme would pray sounds wise, but instead, Neeyutnee continues. “I don’t know how you all did it – live up to their legacies.”

Padme might be in the middle of her own crisis, but it can wait. She remembers how hard it can be to be the Queen-Elect. She might not be the outgoing queen, but it is still her role to be an advisor here, right?

“That’s the thing. You’re never going to be able to live up to their legacies.” Padme starts, and Neeyutnee turns a withering glare on her. She’s going to do great in politics. Still, Padme continues before Neeyutnee can protest. “None of us will. Their legacies, the way we remember them, we’ll never be able to live up to because we don’t remember their insecurities, the mistakes they make. All we can do is just take it one day at a time, and make the best choice we can in each moment.”

That gives Neeyutnee pause.

“Is that how you did it?” She asks after a moment. Padme smiles at her.

“I was flying by the seat of my pants every moment I was queen.” That earns a small smile from the stoic queen-elect.

“I don’t know what I’m doing.” The taller woman confesses to Padme. “I don’t have King Narmlé’s drive to explore and settle all of Naboo,” She gestures at the bust of the ancient king in the corner, “Nor the brilliant mind of the scholar Queen Yram. I don’t even really have the faith in Naboo that Queen Sanandrassa had isolationist though she was, and I definitely don’t have your strength, that guided us through so much, Queen Amidala.”

“You never know.” Padme eventually decides to say. “You never know what qualities you have until you’re tested. And make no mistake, with war igniting across the galaxy, you will be tested.” Padme turned to look Neeyutnee straight in the eyes as she continues. “But the Naboo believe in you, or you wouldn’t be here. The Naboo believes in the power of your ideals. They believe in the person who ran for this position, who proved to everyone that she will fight for them and for Naboo.” And then, Padme smiles as she finishes. “When we start out that’s all any of us had. So, we can’t know who you will become during your time as queen. But I’m sure whoever it is will be exactly who can serve Naboo best.”

“That’s what it means to be the monarch of the Naboo.” Neeyutnee mutters under her breath, as though coming to a realization right there. The line isn’t familiar to Padme, but it sounds like something Jamillia would say. Still, there is wisdom in those words. Padme turns to look at the busts of old, beloved monarchs.

“Exactly. That’s what it means to be the monarch of the Naboo.”
