It was stated that both Burnet and Silverspot were the former assigned partners of Admiral. However, he was supposedly "whisked away to another Hive once there were eggs," which was presumably a lie of Queen Wasp's to cover up the truth about the flamesilks. The queen gave Burnet her partner of choice, Silverspot, although dragons who loved each other were usually separated.

Burnet was present for Luna's Metamorphosis and saw her being taken away by HiveWing guards. She watched as Io helped Blue escape the queen's grasp, wearily saying that it would probably be better for Blue to just turn himself in. She made no attempts to save her son when he and Io escaped the Cocoon.
