- "Don't you think it's unfair that HiveWings can use their weapons on us anytime they want, but we can't do anything to fight back?"
- — Luna to Blue, The Lost Continent
Template:Charbox Luna is a young female SilkWing, Blue's half-sister, and Silverspot's daughter. Luna and Blue are both flamesilks, an ability which they inherited from their father, Admiral. She is currently in a relationship with Swordtail.
Appearance
Luna has pale[1] pearly[2], green scales[1] like an elegant caterpillar color[3], with gold flecks along her back and tail.[4] She had whorls of cobalt and gold in her wingbuds[5], and after her Metamorphosis, her wings are described to look like cascading petals of green sunlight.[6] She may have similar features to a Pyrrhian dragon tribe due to Qibli mistaking her for a hybrid. She is also described to have amber eyes.
Personality
Luna is described as being bubbly and excitable and is also shown to be quite rebellious. She is affectionate towards Swordtail and cares deeply about her half-brother, Blue. Similarly to Swordtail, she resents Queen Wasp and the HiveWing tribe in general for "walking all over SilkWings," as shown in her thoughts at the end of The Lost Continent. When Blue tells Luna not to listen to Swordtail's crazy ideas, she states that it was she who gave Swordtail the rebellious and crazy ideas. She is suspicious of Queen Wasp's true motivations for fostering fear about LeafWings. She is also said to be quite intelligent, as she had the highest grade in her class in silk studies at school. In The Lost Continent, Blue described her as the smartest dragon in the family.

In the epilogue, Luna was being tended to by Jerboa II, as she was injured from a storm that had blown her from Pantala to Pyrrhia, all the way over the sea. She was seen lying on a bed of palm fronds and was noted to sit up and eye Moon and Qibli warily as they entered. She was said by Jerboa II to be the first visitor from the Lost Continent. |

Luna first appeared when she woke Blue, excited to get her wings. He told her she technically had a few days until her wings grew, and she responded by turning Blue's hammock over, dumping him on the ground. Luna spent the day with Blue, apparently enjoying herself, although he noted that her silk glands were glowing very brightly. She mentioned to Blue that they hurt a bit. He worried that this wasn't normal, and tried to make her go see a doctor. She argued back, saying that every Metamorphosis is a bit different and she didn't want to waste her "perfect last day" getting examined by a HiveWing doctor that thought SilkWings were "weird and revolting." Blue relented, and they traveled to the mosaic garden, where they visited the Salvation Wall. They had a brief discussion about the mosaic, and then they played hide-and-seek and went to an art gallery until Luna said they needed to get to the Cocoon as quickly as possible, most likely because she was starting to enter her Metamorphosis trance. Upon arriving at the Cocoon, she began to spin her cocoon with flamesilk, a very rare ability. Immediately, the guards surrounded her, and, despite Swordtail's best efforts, she was taken away. Luna's cocoon was discovered by Blue when he was thrown into the Flamesilk Factory, and she soon woke up, marveling at her new wings, and used her silk for the first time (accidentally lighting a stack of her father's letters aflame). Shortly after she emerged, Blue notified her that their friends were there to rescue them. After failing to convince Admiral to come, she escaped with Blue, and they, along with Cricket, Sundew, and Swordtail, exited the Hive down the LeafWings' tunnel. When they reached the end of the tunnel, she and Swordtail decided to go flying for a bit, only to run into some HiveWing soldiers. They began to fight, and Luna attempted to use her flamesilk on one of the soldiers, only for the wind to catch and tangle it, creating a sail of sorts that got swept up in the winds of the approaching storm, carrying her off into the sea. In the epilogue, when Jerboa II found her, Luna had just awoken, injured, and half-covered by sand on a Pyrrhian beach. She asked Jerboa II who she is, and Jerboa II was relieved that Luna could speak Dragon. Jerboa II took Luna to her hut, where she met Moon and Qibli. She was shocked by how much Moon looked like Clearsight, and then learned that Moon can see the future, like Clearsight, and says her tribe needed her. She then thought, "We're coming for you, Queen Wasp. And now we have a dragon who can really see the future. The reign of the HiveWings is over." |
| The Hive Queen |
|---|
| In the prologue of The Hive Queen, Luna walked over to sit next to Moon in the sand. She told Moon that in the old language, her name meant “moon”. She also told her that she was worried about Blue and Swordtail. Moon talked about The Lost Continent Prophecy, and Luna noted that she knew the secret in the book, and guessed what some of the lines meant. She was very anxious to get home and was strongly disappointed when Turtle and Tsunami's arrival suggested hesitation towards the next step. |
| The Poison Jungle |

| Luna is mentioned multiple times throughout The Poison Jungle, Swordtail asks the PoisonWings if they saw any SilkWings around. When they get to the SapWing village, Swordtail hoped to find Luna, although they found Io instead. |
Relationships
Luna is shown to love and care about her half-brother, and the two are very close. However, she is quite often frustrated by him insisting on following the rules, and not wanting to rebel against the HiveWings. She also notices almost right away how much Blue had changed during the time she was in her cocoon, saying "Wow, [...] It really was a long five days, wasn't it?". She is especially worried about him after she gets blown over to Pyrrhia.
Luna is in a relationship with Swordtail and is shown to care a lot about him. At the beginning of The Lost Continent, she is confident that the two of them will be partnered.
Quotes
- "Don't you 'actually' me. I'm your older sister and I've been to, like, twelve Metamorphosis days, plus I have the highest grade in our class in Silk Studies. I can 'actually' you under the table."
- ― to Blue (The Lost Continent, page 4-5)
- "Pffft. What Tussock's uncle saw was just a green SilkWing. He's just hysterical. And that collapse was obviously just shoddy workmanship. The sabotage story was so obviously a cover-up."
- ― on the topic of LeafWings (The Lost Continent, page 12)
- "Oooo, maybe we'll have a forbidden love!"
- ― joking about Hawker (The Lost Continent, page 16)

- ― to Blue about seeing a doctor (The Lost Continent, page 28)
- "She can tell us what's going to happen next! She can see everything the HiveWings will do! She can predict Queen Wasp's next move and then the Chrysalis will know how to stop her!"
- ― thinking about Moonwatcher (The Lost Continent, epilogue)
- "She's seeing the future RIGHT NOW!"
- ― thinking about Moonwatcher (The Lost Continent, epilogue)
- "My name means 'moon' in the old language, did you know that? Now it's a kind of moth."

Trivia
- Her name means "Moon" in the old dragon language[7], which makes sense since Luna is an alternative term for the moon.
- Luna also translates to Moon in Latin languages such as Spanish and Italian.
- Luna is both the first SilkWing and the first dragon from Pantala to appear in the series.
- Luna is the only Pantalan dragon to appear in the second arc.
- Luna is the first known dragon from Pantala to visit Pyrrhia.
- Luna is apparently the same size as Qibli, as stated in the epilogue of The Lost Continent.
- This means SilkWings are very likely naturally smaller than SandWings, since dragons grow fast when they're young and Luna is one year older than Qibli.
