Biography
The Lost Continent Prophecy
Cadelle was mentioned when Cricket told Blue about her "mother."
Cadelle was first introduced in Cricket's flashback, disturbing Cricket when she was hiding in a cupboard reading a book on architecture. However, Cricket went unnoticed as Cadelle was under Queen Wasp's control at the time. Cadelle went outside to help capture an elderly HiveWing.
In the years between, Cadelle was shown to have gotten divorced, moved to Jewel Hive, and become a history teacher. Cadelle viewed her job as a waste of time.
When Cricket passed by Cadelle's square, she saw Cadelle coming out of the house and hurrying toward an avenue. Later, Katydid told Cricket that Cadelle was not her mother. This greatly frustrated Cricket, to the point where she did not bother to watch when Swordtail reported how Cadelle sailed off with another dragon by Dragonfly Square.
It was later revealed that Cadelle was not Cricket's mother, but was in fact her grandmother who reluctantly took the dragonet in when Cricket's real mother, Katydid, tried to hide the fact that she had an egg.
Upon trying to put up poster copies of Wasp over the Hive, Cricket accidentally ran into Cadelle. Cadelle was enraged and she dragged Cricket into her house, threatening her and demanding to have the Book of Clearsight, which Cricket refused to give. As they argued, Wasp abruptly took over Cadelle and used her to chase after Cricket. Cadelle was part of the mob of HiveWings who captured Cricket and left her in prison.
Relationships
In Cadelle's eyes, Cricket represented danger, crime, disorder, and lies that could ruin Cadelle's life if Queen Wasp found out who Cricket's biological parents were. This is most likely the reason Cadelle left Cicada Hive, to escape Cricket, the risks, and Wasp's potential wrath. She was angry when she caught Cricket in The Hive Queen on her way to the water tower to hide, hissing, "I didn't want anyone to know I had anything to do with you. And you show up here?" Most of Cadelle's hatred for Cricket is motivated by fear of the secrets, lies, and the queen's fury.
Katydid is Cadelle's daughter, though she does not seem particularly motherly to her, as she acts distant and bitter toward Katydid. However, she treated Katydid better than Cricket, as shown when Cadelle would take Katydid to dinner and leave Cricket at home.
Katydid's father was Cadelle's partner, though there seemed to be a sour, slightly bitter relationship between Cadelle and the former. This was possibly because of the lies and disorder associated with Cricket's hatching that caused the two to despise not only Cricket but each other after a period of time. When Cadelle moved out to Jewel Hive to escape Cricket and Katydid, she also divorced Katydid's father and is no longer his partner.
