I am very confused right now. Are we all assuming that the curse is a fluke or a lie made by the marleyans in an attempt to maintain control, or is it a typo that Grisha had the A.T. for 18 years. 'Cus if it is a typo then a lot of these theories are dead in the water, as well as removing an intresting plot device that could be used to help the eldians in converting the Warriors to their side.

If the curse was a fluke then surley grisha would have realised this and him making his sone a titan shifter was a dick move, knowing how the eldians looked on titans (we saw how that tured out we it was first discovered)  as well as stupid considering he had not prepared his son at all for this eventuality if he had planned it out.

Either way, it would probably be best to assume that is was a typo untill confermation so that it doesn't hurt as much if it does turne out to be a typo.
