Season 2 begins with a flashback to the night the Bishop and his cronies raided the Tepes household, interpreting Lisa's medical equipment as "witchcraft" and her anguished warnings of what her husband might do as threats. Back in the present, Dracula's assembled his war council, mostly consisting of vampires but headed by two human forgemasters named [[VideoGame/CastlevaniaCurseOfDarkness Hector and Isaac]], to the disgust of a Viking vampire named Godbrand (and presumably every other vampire in attendance). He trusts the misanthropic humans on the basis that their grudge with humanity is more personal, compared to the way vampires merely see them as livestock.
