The Galactic Empire has become a shell of it's former self. Democracy no longer rules the galaxy and it has become obvious that those star systems who wish to have a representative voice must find a new way to govern themselves. As a trusted member of the Imperial Senate, we the delegation of Alderaan are asking that as a sign of good faith toward the will of the people of the galaxy, the Empire respect our wishes and allow Alderaan to peacefully exit the empire, acting as a model for other star systems to follow should they freely choose.
We trust that the Emperor still listens to reason and to the people, and we certainly hope that the arrival of this new small moon that has just started orbiting our planet is a sign of hope and prosperity for all the citizens of Alderaan.
