The vampire bond. There is no human equivalent (...) It's a bond that can never fully be severed. A bond like that makes you believe there are only two of you on the planet. Freedom and chastity wrapped in one person.

In Armenian, when we want to say โdamn youโ or โgo to hellโ, we use the expressions "ีฃึีธีฒีจ ึีฅีฆ ีฟีกีถีซ" [groxy qez tani] or "ีฃีถีก ีฃึีธีฒีซ ีฎีธึีจ" [gna (kori) groxi tsocy], which translate to โmay the writer take you awayโ or โgo and get lost in the writerโs embraceโ in English. You might wonder, โWho is this writer-person?โ and โWhy is it considered a curse?โ
According to traditional Armenian belief, Grox (the writer) is a spirit who records a person's deeds during their lifetime, determining the purity of their soul. This concept may be linked to Tir, the god of writing and literature in Armenian mythology. In some interpretations, it was believed that anyone whose name Tir wrote in his notebook would die. This is where the curse "may the writer take you" originates.
During the Christian era, Grox was mistakenly represented as a Christian spirit who no longer recorded human deeds but instead determined each person's fate, inscribing it on their foreheads. Over time, Grox came to be depicted as an evil spirit, sometimes identified with Satan. Thus, the curse "get lost in Groxโs embrace," which originally signified death, took on a more negative connotation. However, this was not originally characteristic of Grox in Armenian traditional beliefs.
So, if you want to get creative with your curses, instead of saying โgo to hell,โ you can use the phrase โget lost in the writerโs embraceโ.
