KISMET Lore dump: Little is known about the oracles' upbringing, though it's widely known that unlike other Espers, who emerge from their incubation tanks as fully-grown humans, the oracles came into being as an infants, and were raised by a team of medical professionals, scientists, and childcare specialists. With each oracle taking multiple years to manufacture, Project Delphi's cloning operations ran for nearly 40 years as they created the eight oracles.

(So sorry for the post-dump, friends!  I'll spare you the additional spam and post up the detail view/process video for this particular page later this week 😁)

You know I absolutely LIVE for the lore dumps! It makes me so sad that they know that they're meant to be tools, and the way she tells Octavia that tools can't be sad :( it's supposed to be comforting but wow. I wonder if any of the other oracles ever felt like Octavia and if that was ever something that had to be "taken care of"

It’s funny that you ask if any of the other oracles felt similar to Octavia—I really ought to find ways to include a few more flashbacks from her upbringing! The canon is that by the time Octavia is ~3-4yrs, the only other living Oracle is Tertia, who is 25 years her senior. The others either died quite young (if they were lucky) or succumbed to debilitating mental illness (akin to a very advanced case of dementia/Alzheimer’s) for years before passing. You can assume that Tertia’s upbringing was filled with a *lot* of loss, and that Octavia’s upbringing was filled with a lot of loneliness/isolation.
