Soon after the attempt , Solo ' s daughter , Jedi Knight Jaina Solo and her partner and fellow Jedi , Zekk , arrived . Galney did not hide the fact that she thought that the Solos were behind the attack . Galney stated that several witnesses , all Hapan nobles , witnessed the Solos attacking people who were guarding and protecting the Queen Mother . The Jedi Knights , who believed the Solo ' s innocence , protested anyway . Galney , however , believed that the Solos were terrorists . Some time later , Jedi Knight and Galactic Alliance Guard leader Jacen Solo arrived in the Hapes Consortium , to investigate the assassination attempt . Solo brought Galney in front of him on his ship , the " Anakin Solo " , accompanied by Jedi apprentice Ben Skywalker , security droid DD - 11A , and Tenel Ka ' s daughter , the Chume ' da Allana . Solo assigned Skywalker to see to anything Galney required to ensure the Queen Mother ' s safety , and told Galney to return to her guest suite . However , Galney insisted on staying with Tenel Ka , but Tenel Ka agreed with Solo , and told Galney to take Allana and DD - 11A with her . Solo believed that Galney may have been behind the assassination attempt , but Tenel Ka did not share his suspicion , due to Galney ' s family being some of her strongest supporters . While Galney was aboard the " Anakin Solo " , they were visited by two more Jedi . Two Masters , Grand Master Luke Skywalker and his wife , Mara Jade Skywalker , arrived on the Star Destroyer to speak to Tenel Ka and Jacen Solo . Tenel Ka arrived , and was accompanied by Galney .

Galney stated that she did not think a week was enough time , and had to be silenced by Tenel Ka . Luke dismissed Galney on the grounds that he had information for Tenel Ka ' s ears alone , but Galney once again insisted on staying .
