Legend

this Senali was the ruler of his people, some twelve years prior to the Battle of Naboo. The Senali preferred not to use titles, and Meenon was actually more of a figurehead than a true ruler. King Frane of Rutan accused Meenon of forcing Prince Leed of Rutan to stay on Senali, despite the fact that he had reached his sixteenth birthday. Meenon protested, claiming that Leed had acted on his own. He implored Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi to make Frane understand the situation, which quickly escalated when Frane imprisoned Meenon's daughter, Yaana. Meenon, generally a peaceful man, threatened to retaliate if Frane persisted. When it was discovered that Leed was, in fact, acting on his own, the Jedi also discovered that Leed's brother, Taroon, had the skills to rule in his place. After getting all parties to talk to one another, King Frane realized that Meenon had been truthful and that Leed truly enjoyed Senali. Frane freed Yaana and allowed Leed to return to Senali, and proposed that Taroon marry Meenon's other daughter, Drenna, to help solidify the new-found peace between the two worlds.
