One of the pivots of the second book of the Trilogy, Sentence is Shahan Natali's idea of the Holy Criminal.
In the first book, Cassandra passes on the warning of the Circumcised and in the second book, she knells or maybe heralds their sentence.
The mystical succession of names Vrezh and Harutyun is revealed. An Armenian freedom fighter saves an Azeri child thus depriving himself of the possibility to become a member of the Circumcised. The Angel of Revelation sounds the trumpet of Wormwood Star. The Turkish Vengeance Union seizes the Armenian churches on April 24th to discover and neutralize the Circumcised and hold a referendum to deny the Armenian Genocide. A Nameless character takes vengeance for his circumcised friend, his family and kin. Grigor the Scribe writes an earthshaking unfinished line on the canvas of heaven. The plot develops with an unavertable flow of events and the conflict works up to a climax. The power of the Circumcised extends to a mythical degree and they can already take vengeance, kill by thought and wish. The son of the eternal mother Mariam, Vrezh neutralizes the energetic stroke aimed at Gyul, as he is still a child. Mahtesyan and Gyul, Hajji and Sevan make great efforts to overcome the barrier constantly rising between them and, through catharsis-purification, to achieve the ability to repent, forgive and love, which being so personal, at the same time is even more general and symbolical. And the problem is still the same; to save the Turks from being massacred and the Armenians from perpetrating Genocide.
And not only that...
