I did it to save Padmé.

[ what's the point in hiding it now, anyway. ]

And our child. So we could be a family and live together... Do you know how it is to give up everything in hope of saving the one thing you care about the most only to learn that it is all about to backfire on you? I keep getting told that there's nothing I can do to change any of this. That Padmé will die and our children grow up hating or fearing me.

[ There's a flash of grief here. A deeply running sadness that carries a faint anger. ]

It's a terrible thing to be told.
