That there was a blockade around Ralltiir when Leia arrived on the Tantive IV wasn't surprising. But what was was what the pilot announced as they reached the surface of the planet. "They've posted a guard at our boarding lock, Princess."
"What?" Leia said. "Patch me through to whoever's in charge." She waited until the connection was made, then said haughtily, "This is Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan. Who's responsible for this outrage?" Princess tended to work better than Senator in a situation like this, she'd found.
"A delight to hear your voice again, Your Highness," came her answer. "Lord Tion here."
( Leia was glad the transmission was only audio so Tion didn't see the look of disgust on her face. )
[NFB, of course. From the Star Wars Empire comic #5 "Princess...Warrior, Part 1" and the Star Wars Radio Play episode 2, "Points of Origin." Which kinda got jossed by "The Force Unleashed" so I had to tweak some things, SIGH.]
