    Welcome to the final part of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story! Last time, Hai brought a soul-blossom seed back from the realm of dreams… a seed that can bring Mei back to life – if only Hai can get it to bloom.

As Hai sleeps, the soul blossom grows… Today, in the 12th and final part of Pearl, we find out how our story ends.For a full bilingual transcript, go to: www.pandacubstories.com/season-1-legends-myths/2019/3/7/s1e18-pearl12*ABOUT THE SHOW:Panda Cub Stories (熊猫宝宝故事会) is a bilingual children’s podcast with a big vision: to help raise multilingual and multicultural children through storytelling!

    We ended last week’s episode with Hai’s dream – or is it a dream? – leading him to a mysterious, gray colored land. And who was the mysterious figure in black?

We left our story with Mei’s heart literally in Hai’s hands… and Mei a lifeless figure of stone. Is our tale to end in tragedy?
