*UPDATE: Guys, thank you soooo much for reading, voting, and commenting! It really means a lot! Also, I started writing this story May 11th, 2022. I had NO idea there was a scary movie called Pearl. I just thought it was a pretty name. In a world where elves and humans coexist, a dying half-elf French witch travels to Japan in order to transfer her power to an old friend and lover, the wizard Hajime. The witch's granddaughter, Pearl, arrives from Canada, as she was invited to receive this gift in a special ritual. Meanwhile, Prince Hinata of Japan is preparing to marry Princess Achara of Thailand, but he doesn't like this arrangement. Pearl's obsession with royalty lands her in hot water with her grandmother, and following an argument, she is taken to the Palace by a royal servant. Quickly realizing what happened, the old witch and wizard must work together to save Pearl from the Prince. But things become complicated after Pearl falls in love with him while remaining mesmerized by a friendly, half-elf kitchen servant. I'm interested in Japanese culture and watch NHK News. (I've always been into anime, kabuki, and sumo as well.) This work is not meant to be offensive in any way. All discriminatory language used by characters is used to show who they are, not my values. I guess I predicted Kamala and Chappell with Sadako...being mocked for her laugh, a queer woman into drag, etc. Fun fact: Pearl's birthday is September 25th, making her a Libra. Amma's song is based on "Teach Me, Tiger" by April Stevens. Sexual restraint (or purity culture) is what makes the Prince crazy in his treatment of women; the elves express sexuality in a healthy way compared to humans, thus showing the contrast between them. The Prince's isolation definitely factors into this, too- Pearl is the first "different" girl he's seen, so when he sees her, he sees her more as a comforting concept than a person.

It's been fourteen years since Pearl's beloved Rose Quartz Passed away. Yet She still remains paralyzed in the past, reduced to a shadow of what she once was. She has become so blinded by her own insecurities and emotions that she can't see who has really been behind her all along. Who was the one who had always been there for her, even in the worst situations? Who would do anything for her even if it meant putting their life at risk? Who had the capacity to love her more than Rose Quartz? The chemistry between the two of them is boiling, but she still refuses to see it. The one who had provided solace and sympathy all those years will now be the one to rise up and provide her with a nourishing love that was desperately needed.
