Patricia "Polly" Bern's Links
Polly thinks of Avalon as someone who's just 'misguided', since she sees magic as a mistake to pursue. She can tell that Avalon has an inquisitive mind and a willingness to cooperate and do good, so she's willing enough to hear him out and maybe nudge him in a different career path.
Avalon sees Polly overall in a positive manner - though she doesn't say much, she reminds Avalon a bit of one of their moms, and trusts her judgement. Most likely to say yes if Polly asked them to help with fieldwork, given their interest in plantlife.
