"The world is full of possibilities! Yes, like me, a pearl!"

Profile
Seeking The Pearl is a horse girl who doesn't just want to be a small speck in history. Having lived in many different countries growing up, she wants to show that with her body, anything in the world can happen. And she can prove it, delivering great results in short and mile races with a smile on her face.

She is also considered a big sister figure among younger horse girls because of her life. However, despite all her traveling, she actually doesn't speak English. She mitigates this comfortably by using body language.
