[When Anakin mentioned killing Kylo Ren it took all his willpower not to laugh. He could just imagine it but he got his emotions under control as they stepped into the apartment. He closed the door behind him, taking a moment to take off his coat and fold it neatly over a chair.]
As I said, it's been a long 50 years but I'll start with your question about Senator Amidala.
[He had to be careful in how he phrased things. He had to go by what was in the Imperial record and his own knowledge, he was sure there was more to it than what was on file but he wouldn't speculate.
He gestured for Anakin to sit as he sat on one of the chairs, this was going to be a long talk]
The official Imperial record indicates that she died in childbirth just two days before Palpatine established the Empire. However, it turns out that the record had been falsified, most likely by Palpatine himself.
[He paused for a moment, thoughtful.]
I don't know if he also covered up the real cause of her death as well, I didn't have access to that information, but decades later it was discovered that the children she carried actually survived. A boy and girl- Luke and Leia.
[Here he stopped, letting Anakin have a moment to process things. He knew it was a lot to dump on him but it was best it was out in the open. He would meet Kylo Ren soon enough anyway.]
