Heliconian

"You're not helping matters with YOUR bellowing!"

— Heliconian to Whitespeck, The Lost Continent

Heliconian is an adult female SilkWing who appears in The Lost Continent. She is one of the ten flamesilks imprisoned by Queen Wasp.

Personality

Heliconian is shown to be fidgety and seems unhappy, most likely due to being trapped in the flamesilk factory. She also appears to be quiet and easy to push around, as she does not complain about being stuck in the factory. She seems interested in the world beyond the flamesilk cavern, and is one of the few flamesilks who seems interested in the thought of escaping (although she doesn't complain about the HiveWings). Danaid mentions that she "ruins everything".

Biography

The Lost Continent Prophecy

The Lost Continent

Helonican was first mentioned in The Lost Continent in Danaid and Pierid's argument. Pierid commented on how it wasn't his fault Festoon overheard his secret conversation with Heliconian. Shortly after the argument, Danaid mentioned Heliconian when she listed all the flamesilks in the flamesilk factory and claimed that she "ruins everything".

Later, Blue visited Heliconian and they talked. Heliconian only asked him questions about the outside world, which made Blue suspect that Heliconian was unhappy in the flamesilk factory and wished to be free.

Heliconian was also one of the ten flamesilks yelling and shouting at each other in the commotion Danaid caused. When Whitespeck yelled at the others to shut up because he was trying to sleep, Heliconian snapped back at him that him screaming wasn't helping the problem.
