I was just thinking about this today. How does the life of a daeva begin? Are they born to other daeva or are they born to wild animals and mature into daeva... or both?

Born to other daeva in their animal form and learn to transform into their humanoid forms as a toddler. It seems odd, but within Feral wild animals are just regular animals like in the real world, and daeva are daeva. There's no cross between them
