The Librarian
Template:Charbox The Librarian is a female HiveWing who has spent most of her life controlled by Queen Wasp. She took the job of the Librarian protecting and watching over the Book of Clearsight thinking it was an honor, but later found out that Queen Wasp mind controlled her day and night so she never even got to read or see the book of Clearsight. Sundew once freed her from the mind control for a short amount of time by having her stung with bullet ants, but Queen Wasp regained mind control over her again shortly after.
Appearance
The Librarian is a tall, bony dragon. She has scales the color of pale orange or unripe apricots that are marked with a black zigzagging triangle pattern along her spine and tail. Under control of Queen Wasp, she has pure white eyes and a dark silk veil that shrouds her face.[1] She has long, retractable stingers under her claws, and is fairly large and strong.[2] The Librarian has dark orange irises when she is uncontrolled by Wasp.[3]
Biography
When Blue, Cricket, and Sundew first meet The Librarian, she is under Queen Wasp's control. She fights Sundew, who is able to steal the key to the Book of Clearsight's box. Soon after, Sundew frees her from the queen's mind control for the first time since she was initiated as Librarian using a bullet ant. The pain from the ant makes the queen want to leave the Librarian's body. Sundew gives the Librarian something to deaden the pain. The Librarian decides to help Blue, Cricket, and Sundew steal the Book of Clearsight and get away. However, the queen starts controlling the Librarian again after Sundew uses something to distract the HiveWings below. The last thing Blue sees of the Librarian is Sundew fighting her.
Cricket mentions the event with The Librarian, telling Sundew that not all HiveWings are bad, Queen Wasp just doesn't give them a choice.
Quotes
"That's the one way to be sure the Librarian never reveals the Book's secrets. The tribe thinks two dragons share the Book's knowledge - but really, only the queen does, because the Librarian isn't herself anymore." - Cricket speculating aloud The Lost Continent, page 214
"Ever since the initiation ceremony. I woke up from the ritual with [Queen Wasp] inside my head. When she sleeps, she makes me sleep. She's always in there. I was so proud to be chosen. I never knew what it would mean - I had no idea she did this." - The Librarian to Cricket The Lost Continent, page 218
Trivia
- She, Herring's brother, Tussock's Uncle, Clearsight’s Father, Starflight's Daughter, Katydid's Father, and Silverspot's Mistress are the only known characters whose real names are unknown.
- She is currently the most important character to be unnamed.
- She seems to be highly disappointed with the implications of her rule to the HiveWings. None of the other HiveWings knew how badly her 'work' was forced on her.
