Welcome to the Academy.
Welcome to the noble and ancient ranks of the Helios-Ra. Ours is a sacred duty and a privilege passed down from generation to generation. To be a hunter is not merely to hunt; it is to protect.
We serve the human race that it may live and grow and advance, unburdened by those creatures that dwell in the darkness. It is no accident that society at large believes vampires to be myth or literary device. We have worked long and hard to keep it so. Nothing would be served by mass panic or vigilantes. The governments of the world and the Helios-Ra both agree on this point and work together to keep it thus.
The vampires are no less eager to have their presence known. And so long as they keep to the shadows, so too must we.
But we will be revealed to those who know such things by the symbol of the sun; Helios of the Greeks and Ra of the Egyptians.
We serve the sun.
Lucy comment: "I knew they had government connections. Hart totally has that James Bond thing going for him."

Un peu déçue j'aurai aimé beaucoup plus de commentaire de Lucy. Et les informations contenus dans ce livre de cours m'ont pas plus intéressé que ça. Les nouvelles sont mieux.

Idem que Quorah, un guide assez sympa mais j'ai surtout lu et apprécié les commentaires de Lucy, toujours aussi drôles, et qui font toute la saveur de ce guide. Mais les quelques détails supplémentaires que l'on apprend sont appréciables.

Plutôt sympa mais personnellement j'ai surtout sauter des passage pour aller au commentaires de Lucy sinon il est bien dans l'ensemble ^^

Résumé
Every new recruit to the Helios-Ra Society is issued this guidebook, with secrets to the inner workings of the League the vampires they are hunting. But when new recruit Lucy Hamilton gets her hands on a copy, she can’t contain her inner snark-especially because she has first-hand knowledge of the various vampire societies that sometimes contradicts the conventional wisdom of her new academy.
