Giving birth to a reincarnated higher being is a daunting task, to say the least. The parent giving birth has to be a very exalted supernatural being to not die in the process. That’s because demons, fae, spirits, hell beasts, hell-beings, and even demi-gods can die in the process. The only beings who can survive giving birth to a higher being are deities themselves. 

The reason behind this is that higher beings are made of a very tumultuous and strong energy that slowly disintegrates their organs from the inside. Think of it resembling terribly bad radiation of a different kind. 

Amira’s mother, Lamia Shams, is an earthly reincarnated goddess, but her pregnancy wasn’t easy. In fact, the reason why Amira was born in Rome was that her mum was put on bed rest immediately and she was sick throughout the term. 

On a much darker note  (  heavy topic warning, please tread with caution  ), Augustus’ mum who was a demi-goddess died in childbirth.
