Blue is the SilkWing protagonist of Book Eleven, The Lost Continent. His name was confirmed by Tui T. Sutherland at the Maynard Book Festival on April 7th, 2018.[1]. He is the son of Burnet and Admiral, and the half- brother of Luna. He, like Luna, inherited flamesilk from their father Admiral.
Appearance
Blue has gem-like azure scales[2] and iridescent violet wings[2], brighter and more purple than his scales. On the cover of The Lost Continent, he is depicted as the opposite: purple with blue wings.
Biography
Blue is woken up by Luna, who excitedly announces that it is her metamorphosis day. They set out to gather honey drops to use to celebrate after saying goodbye to Silverspot, but Blue is nervous due to his stepmother's expression. On their way, they pass a group of propaganda posters warning them about LeafWings and the dangers of disobeying the queen, and Blue and Luna have a brief disagreement about whether LeafWings still exist. Afterward, they encounter Hawker, a HiveWing who checks their identification using metal bands on their wrist which is engarved with their ID and school, Silkworm Hall. Hawker remarks about Luna's metamorphosis. Luna and Blue then go inside the Hive, where they end up in a candy store called The Sugar Dream. Chafer, the salesdragon, along with two other rude HiveWings, give Blue and his sister a hard time at first, until Lady Scarab demands that they be served and helps them out. After that, Blue and Luna walk around the Hive, going about their business and celebrating for Luna's Metamorphosis. When they enter the Mosaic Garden, Luna complains that her wrists hurt a little, and Blue prays that Luna will have a normal Metamorphosis.
