It is very likely that after Simon and Alucard defeated Dracula that he was A). Either approached by the Brotherhood of Light or B) Came to them willingly and offered to assist them in preparing for Dracula's eventual return. (as predicted by Alucard).

Simon would have probably helped the Brotherhood by divulging what he knew of the castle's last known layout and structure. He would have helped in training of the brotherhood warriors in various combat techniques. Also, finding the time to secure his bloodline's lineage as the prophecy dictates was necessary.

I'm curious what Alucard's relationship to the Brotherhood was like during the pre-slumber time-period. Did he work closely with the Brotherhood over the centuries? Or merely operate from the shadows? There is a lot of territory here that could be explored in future games if other devolpers wish to continue with the series.

And here's another question that's interesting to think about. In the modern day city (2047) it was mentioned in several memorials that the Bernhard family lineage has survived all these years. Do you actually believe what the memorials say of this current Bernhard family as being good-natured and altruistic? Or could the family simply be biding their time and waiting for the right moment to make a power-grab from the current ruler of THEIR former Castle? I think it's interesting to think about and if I were a writer that was tasked with carrying on the LOS2 timeline in the present day setting, I would be sure to use the Bernhards as the next major antagonist.
