In the end the ganesg idols are imersed in the sea.
It is actually Hester that comes back, not Pearl. Pearl ends up marrying a wealthy Englishman and has kids of her own. She occasionally sent letters back to Hester after the mother moved back to the town with the letter adorned.
Yes, Hester is glad to have Pearl as her daughter. Pearl brings Hester comfort and joy despite the challenges they face in society. Pearl also represents a symbol of Hester's love and redemption.
The fact that Hester would constantly remind Pearl of the consequences of sin is what convinced the governor to let Hester keep Pearl. Hester supported herself and Pearl by sewing garments.
It doesn't really explain why they left in detail, but I suspect that the reason Pearl and Hester left was because there is nothing left for them in the Boston area except scorn. Hester took advantage of the great wealth bestowed on Pearl by her husband, Mr. Chillingsworth, and used it to provide the best life for Pearl. In the end though, after Pearl is said to be living a full life, Hester returns to the community and continues her punishment by the scarlet letter.
Pearl was the representation of Hester's affair with that priest man. Pearl was a "devilish" child and so represented the Evil that Hester had committed. She was Hester's true "Scarlet letter". Pearl was young, outgoing, and carefree while her mother was the complete oposite.
Hester was worried about Pearl's personality, because she is alot like Hester was when she was a child. She didn't want Pearl to turn out like she did, and be a wild person.
Hester and Pearl had been visiting Governor Bellingham's house, where they were discussing Pearl being taken away from Hester. On their way home, they stop at the scaffold where Hester was punished.
Hester evades Pearl's questions about the "black man," refusing to confirm or deny if she has met him. Hester's responses to Pearl are ambiguous, as she tries to protect her daughter from the truth about her involvement with the mysterious figure.
If Pearl had been taken away from Hester in "The Scarlet Letter," it would have compounded Hester's isolation and loneliness. Pearl is not only Hester's daughter but also her source of love and connection to the world. Losing Pearl would have intensified Hester's feelings of guilt and shame, making her punishment even more severe.
Hester told Pearl that she came from the forest where the Black Man lives.
In The Scarlet Letter, the settlement's sentiment towards everything is meant to be hypocritical and to hold double standards. The townspeople try to have Pearl removed from Hester's care. By the novel's end, Hester has become a protofeminist mother figure to the women of the community.
Hester tells Pearl that she has no father and that she was born from sin. She refuses to reveal the identity of Pearl's father, choosing to protect his secret.
