Mara carried Ben close to her in a sling as she approached the place she had been told Padme was staying. Truthfully, she was worried and unhappy. Not with meeting Padme, although she truly wished Luke....her Luke...hadn't vanished before he got the chance to meet his mother. He'd talked about it a lot, wishing he could have met her, and she did feel bad for him. Leia at least had what she called a glimpse, a flash, an image...Luke had nothing.

No, what she was unhappy about was the increasing issues with the First Order. They were moving against more and more Force-sensitives, and it was getting more and more dangerous. She could put up one hell of a fight herself, but she worried constantly for Ben. He had been discovered even before his birth to be a strong Force-sensitive. She wasn't sure how to keep him safe. Leia and Han could be of help, and so could the other Jedi here, but it was still not going to be easy.

For now, she was liking the idea of letting Ben meet the only grandparent he'd probably ever get to, and letting Padme see more of what she'd been so cruelly denied. Ben was mostly quiet for now, though awake, gurgling a little bit. Mara sometimes still felt the shock of it. She never would have seen herself as a mother even just a few years ago. She still hated not having Luke with her, wondering if she was doing right for Ben and if she was doing all right at all of this stuff. But, she was strong and she'd make the most, she'd do what she had to so they'd both survive.

She knocked on the door, waiting for Padme to answer, her senses alert as always to any potential trouble around her.

( He was relieved to have found Padme on the holonet, though he could not help a sense of dread when he considered how emphatic she had been that he would not like what she had to say about how the galaxy had changed. )
