Der blaue Stein kam nicht aus dem Meer. Er kam den Fluss herunter.
Flüsse tragen Steine aus den Bergen herunter. Also gingen zwei Männer den Fluss hinauf, um den Ort zu suchen. Das war im Jahr neunzehnhundertvierundsiebzig. Hoch in den Bergen fanden sie dunkles Gestein. Im dunklen Gestein war Blau.
Ein Mann hieß Miguel Méndez. Seine Tochter hieß Larissa. Das spanische Wort für Meer ist mar. Also gab er dem Stein den Namen larimar.
Andere Menschen sahen den blauen Stein schon vor ihm. Aber niemand wusste, was es war. Polly blickt hinauf zum grünen Berg über ihr.
That's the story.
