the collective psyche of the shaman 'tampered' with the in-utero embryo, infusing it with everything that they were, and then some. so he had their knowledge from birth but i think it was slowly 'unlocked' as he matured (can't remember if this is lore or just my opinion though). he may have been fully self aware on birth with all the knowledge immediately at his disposal, like alia, leto II and ghanima. although would/does he have the individual personalities that created him, and then would he have been as susceptible to 'possession' from one of his ancestors, like what happened to alia?
