Oracle from #1-- Anyone Notice This? (Spoiler)

[Seant]

I was just reading the Blood collection and noticed something from #1 I missed on my first read. When Zola hears she's pregnant, we see her saying "oh, Sh--" and on the next page, one of the oracles seems to be screaming "eeeee" but if you put them together, the line, along with the other oracles, is "She will kill one of you."

The next lines from the oracle is that "one of your father's children will murder another and take their place."

So does that mean the god who will kill one of her siblings is female?

Apologies if this has already been discussed.

Hm. Interesting! And if it is a female, does that indicate that it could be Diana?

And why would Zeus want that?

This is something we were discussing back then on the DC Forum while it was around. If Zeus is indeed destined to be the child born, then the only "she" left around that would make sense, is Wonder Woman.

It seems very likely, but despite Diana being present, it could also be Artemis (also a child of Zeus).

Not to mention we still haven't seen Athena (first-born daughter of Zeus). She could be plotting to kill whoever takes Zeus' throne and claim it for herself.

I wonder if one of the children of Zeus spoken of in the prophecy might actually be Zeus himself, assuming the theory that Zola's going to give birth to him pans out. Not sure if that would make him the murderer or the murdered if that is the case.

Depending on the myth Athena was another of Zeus' dalliances, this one directly leading to Hera deciding to create Hepheastus on her own.

Athena's a strong possibility. When the Oracle said Zeus' child by Metis would eventually overthrow him, he swallowed her, and Athena burst out of his head. Didn't Hephaestus crack Zeus' head with a hammer? I guess this story doesn't jive with the one above.

maybe it's strife/eris
I want some golden apples.

That seems likely...but I have a feeling it could also be a red herring, since we don't hear the actual Oracle message.
