Biography
The Lost Continent Prophecy
After seeing Wasp for the first time on her visit to Silkworm Hall, Blue mentioned how Cicada never seemed quite as intimidating ever again.
Later, Blue and Luna visited the Lady Cicada Art Gallery which included many paintings, sculptures, and silk weavings of Cicada. It was mentioned that Cicada was old enough to be alive back when there were trees, and there was a small wooden sculpture of her in the center of the room.
When Scarab talked to Cricket about Wasp's mind control, the former indirectly mentioned Cicada when she stated that the mind control did not work on any of Wasp's sisters.
Cicada was indirectly mentioned when Luna stated that Wasp and the rest of her sisters had been imprisoned in the flamesilk caverns.
