Standing in the chamber of the Republic Senate, speaking to the few that are gathered, the Republic Chancellor raises his hands for silence. After a few moments, he gets it, and politely taps his mic twice as is customary. The computer recognizes him, activating his microphone. Lord Vreeth, Bothan Trading Company president looks out to those amassed and clears and lowers his hands before speaking. Sho'lar stops and breathes, allowing his speech to sink in. He steps back a moment, and bows. "Thank you!" He calls out to everyone before moving to retake his seat.
