Hellsing-2
Contents
Description
Throughout history, there have been two worlds--the one that we know, and the secret world of the supernatural and the unexplained. There are things in this world that modern man relegates to fairytales and videogames, but they are real--and they are ugly. And their very presence exacts a terrible toll on mankind. Many agencies, government and not have toiled endlessly to ensure that the two worlds remain separate, that the modern world and the public remain perpetually blissfully unaware of the creatures that go bump in the night and caper in the shadows. Vampires, zombies, werewolves--sorcerers and users of black magic.
Enter the Hellsing organization, run by Sir Integra Wingates Hellsing, descendant and heir to the legacy of Abraham Van Helsing, defender of the English Protestant church. However on the other side is the Catholic Church with their own secret division: Section XIII, Iscariot. Both of these groups work to stamp out evil, heresy and threats to mankind. They have clashed at various points throughout history over pride and prejudices against each other, though until recently have maintained an uneasy agreement for peace in this age of cellphone cameras and the internet.
From the shadows of the second world war, the Last Battalion, the Millennium organization has unbeknownst to all, escaped utter destruction at the hands of Hellsing's top agents, Alucard and Walter C. Dornez. One of the few known groups to try and harness supernatural forces for military use, and in recent years have come startlingly close to perfecting the vampire with modern technology.
In secret they have consolidate their power, make ties, sow disorder and destruction and seek to set the stage for a new war.
