"Why did you call me jadeite?", Nephrite asked. Nebuchadnezzar still holding her hand replied, "is it not your name?",he asked.
"The meaning of my name",she corrected. Nebuchadnezzar shrugged.

He stopped in front of the river. "Your name is coined from this river, it is called the jadeite river. It flows round the whole Babylon and the kingdoms it control. In it you will find Jade stones",Nebuchadnezzar explains.
Nephrite nod and looked at the water. "My father calls my mother Jade because he says as the jadeite river flows round the world so she was his world",the king explained.
"He died out of grief, he loved my mother more than life its self. He couldn't forgive himself for letting her die",Nebuchadnezzar said blinking away the memory. Nephrite got the feeling that what the king told her he have told it to no one.
"I chose to call you jadeite because you remind me so much of my mother",Nebuchadnezzar informed her. Nebuchadnezzar wondered why Nephrite was so quiet, he expected her to talk or ask him any questions.
"Are you scared of me,Jadeite?",he ask her. Nephrite tensed up at the question. She swallowed hard and look away.
"Who is not afraid of his sovereignty?",she ask. Nebuchadnezzar nodded,he knew the whole world fears him but he don't want his queen to be.
"What am I to you, jadeite?",he ask again.
"You are the king of all kings. The greatest ruler on earth. The king of Babylon",nephrite answers.
He nod. "But that is just a title not my name. What am I to you?",he ask.
"Forgive me your sovereignty but I don't know your name,am sure your name is not the king", Nephrite said. Nebuchadnezzar laughed. She sure knows how to Make him laugh even when he don't want to.
"I am Nebuchadnezzar".
Nebuchadnezzar, Nephrite memories the name and smile. Strange but have authorities. "It mean the Mighty authority",Nebuchadnezzar told nephrite. She guessed right.
"Jadeite, do you miss your kingdom?",Nebuchadnezzar asked.
"A little", lie! A lot more than you can ever imagine! Was what Nephrite wanted to say.
"I want to show you something but it can't be tonight, the night is asleep already",Nebuchadnezzar says. Nephrite nodded and remember she has to sleep.
"I hope to be doing this again,jadeite",Nebuchadnezzar said and clasp Nephrite hand tighter. Side by side they walk back to the Harlan.
