Waiting for future reveal that Marius took the memories Armand was able to recollect about his past in Delhi.

In The Vampire Armand it lines up with the show that due to the trauma Armand faces while kidnapped, enslaved, and abused in the brothel, he had little memory of his life in Delhi, but would still remember fragments here and there.

Armand's first memory he tells Daniel about in 1973, Armand is being run down by slavers.

I think Marius forced Armand to believe he was sold by his parents so that he'd stop longing for his past/culture/religion, and focus on cult de Romanus.

like the contrast of Arun's parents selling him to slavers in the show vs Andrei's father in The Vampire Armand chasing after the raiders that took his son while wounded by multiple arrows (and weeping and begging him to stay when they reunite later on), It'd be such a drastic thing for the show to change about his character, that instead of being taken from a family who loved him he was sold by said family instead??

I've always been like wow memory erasing what a crazy ability for them to introduce in the show...wonder where he learned that from...

Obviously from what Armand believes about his family, I don't think we'll get Armand going back to his homeland flashback scenes like in the book. I think instead Marius deliberately took that opportunity away from him by convincing him he was never loved until Marius and there is nothing for him to go back to.

Just another way for him to have full control and devotion from Amedeo.
