Immediately following the events of Empire Strikes Back in 3 ABY, Darth Vader set off across the galaxy and search evansors to the question who hit his son Luke Skywalker from him. His search for answers initially brought him to Tatooine, which then led him to Padme's apartment on Coruscant, and then the planet Vendexa, before making his way to Padme's homeworld of Nibu. Once on Nibu, Darth Vader was confronted by a group called the Amadalans, who pledged to find and kill those responsible for Padme's death and consisted of several individuals who were previously close to Padme, including Sabe, as well as Captain Greg R. Tifo, Vader quickly killed the Amadalans, descended into Padme's tomb, opened her sarcophagus, and found a traceable med and plant still in Padme's body, which allowed Darth Vader to trace the implant back to the Palismasa Medical Facility, where Padme gave birth to Luke and Leia. Once on Palismasa, Vader found a Trunetan B-machine midwife redroid, accessed its memory bank, which allowed Vader to see the hollow recording of Padme giving birth to Luke and Leia, before she uttered Obi-Wan's name and told him that there was still good in Anakin. Talk about heartbreaking.
