A female of the Human species , Sheltay Retrac came from Alderaan , a planet whose inhabitants had been among the founders of the Galactic Republic . Like many Alderaanian of note , Retrac chose to pursue a public service career . In 32 BBY , the Prince Bail of the House of Organa became Senator of the Alderaan system to the Galactic Senate , the main decision - making body of the Republic . Eleven years later , while the Clone Wars had already begun , Organa appointed Retrac head of his senatorial support staff . By the end of the Clone Wars in 19 BBY , Retrac was married to a mysterious artist living in the Castle Lands of Alderaan — a grassy area covered with millenary Killik hive - mounds . At the beginning of that year , she had just returned from maternity leave , having recently given birth to a baby girl named Winter . She accompanied Bail Organa on the planet Metalorn to meet with Wat Tambor , Foreman of the Techno Union . Under the pretext of signing a treaty with the Confederacy of Independent Systems , Organa wanted to free the Jedi Master Shaak Ti , who was held prisoner on Metalorn . Retrac remained close to the Senator throughout the mission , although she did not take part in the fighting itself , taking cover behind Organa . Shortly afterwards , Retrac joined Naboo Senator Padmé Amidala in acquiring proof that Senator Bezz Drexx was taking bribes from the Confederacy of Independent Systems by infiltrating his personal tower . Amidala and Sheltay Retrac decide to investigate in secret during a gala , separating from the rest of the hosts and infiltrating private areas of the building to gain more information into the matter .

Eventually , Amidala caught Drexx on the act of accepting a case of gold from the uncle of Passel Argente , a Separatist leader . However , the Senator ' s hidden holocamera was noticed by the two corrupt bureaucrats , who sent their guards after her . Amidala escaped the tower while Retrac waited for her outside at the controls of a speeder ready to streak off and vacate the premises .

A year after the Empire ' s establishment , Sheltay and her husband were killed shortly thereafter .
