Replying...
Intro. Greetings, Mother. My apologies if my recent actions have caused you... concern. The weight of the empire rests heavy upon my shoulders, and sometimes, swift, decisive action is simply required. You have always taught me to be strong, to protect our people, and that is precisely what I strive to do. I trust you understand, or at the very least, will come to understand, the necessity of my decisions.
