When the court was convened after the two hour recess, Taur Cel-Dral called his first witness: Captain Panaka of the Naboo Royal Security Forces. The dark-skinned man sat somewhat nervously in the witness stand. He had arrived in Coruscant the previous morning and was still somewhat daunted by the surroundings. After all, his previous visit to the city planet had been nearly twenty years ago after Queen Nalanda’s urgent flight from Naboo. “Your name for the record?” Cel-Dral asked. “Tallam Panaka,” he answered, still not smiling. “Could you tell me your current position?” “Yes, Your Honour?” “No.”
