What can be done to best optimize a human Dual-Cursed Oracle with the Blackened and Consumed (non-adv.) curses? The idea is to use Oracle's Burden to amplify damage through Blackened's spells. Mysteries on the table are Life (to mitigate the non-lethal damage that racks up through Consumed), Flames (largely flavor based, but gives higher level fire spells), Lore (utility support through skills when not blasting), and Time (good class skills and mid-level spells). Character is level 5, but feats at 3 and 5 are spoken for. Misfortune will be taken as one of the revelations to improve the chances of Oracle's Burden sticking. So, what is the optimal set-up for 2 revelations (1 and 3) and 2 feats (both at 1)?
I realize only 2 feats free poses a challenge, but I want to see what can really be done with limited resources.
Blackened and consumed? Are you a salmon?

Lol perhaps
Since you're wanting to land 2 spells on a BBEG at least, improved initiative and/or noble scion (scion of war) to give you the best chance of winning the initiative and being an action up seems like a good idea. With most of the mysteries extra revelation is a solid choice.
You might also consider the Volcano mystery for more fire spells. Not that you don't have enough to consider already I guess.
