    Babies are born from Birthmothers, who, in some way never explained, become pregnant, give bith to 2 or more children in a course of 3 years, then become Laborers for the rest of their lives.

    Infants are taken to be taken care of for a year. They progress (if not, they are Released or, in some very special cases, given another year) and are given their names and parents at the Ceremony.
