The Goddess of Cup is the mother of all "Children of the Cup."
The reason why all "Children of the Cup" have blood-red pupils is exactly because the Goddess of Cup has hair and pupils of blood—this is the proof of inheritance. It transcends the limits of bloodlines and space to take effect forcefully.
——That's right.
In the ritual of the "Children of the Cup," although only one side's genetic material is invested, the Children of the Cup are not the offspring of a single individual.
Whether the ritual is performed by a male or female, the mother of the Children of the Cup is always the Goddess of Cup, and the father is the provider of the genetic material.
Although they do not possess divine blood or descend from gods, the Children of the Cup can still be considered the progeny of the Goddess of Cup. For the chalice held by the Goddess of Cup is her womb, and the process of "conception from the cup" can itself be considered as "birth from the Goddess of Cup" during the ritual.
