Pearl is Maya's young cousin, and a powerful medium in her family. Personality: Pearl is shy around strangers, but once she's warmed up to someone she's friendly, polite, and very clever. Possibly due to her mother's strict upbringing she is far more mature than most children her age, and participates in many of Phoenix's investigations. She's very talented when it comes to channeling spirits. Misc Facts: Pearl is not so good with kanji. She's also a fan of Elise Tenryuusai's picture books. In the Japanese, Phoenix calls her "Harumi-chan" and Maya "Hami-chan." In the English, Phoenix calls her "Pearls" and Maya "Pearly". Friends and Family: Pearl is Mia and Maya's cousin, and her mother is Morgan. Name Origin: English: Probably chosen to sound cute. Also means "precious." Japanese: The kanji for Harumi mean "spring beauty." Background: Pearl was raised in Kurain by her mother, after her father left the village when she was young.
