The east side of the city is the very heart of Sacrosanct - it's unique skyline is a clash between modern sky rises and small Victorian-inspired storefronts. In the heart of downtown, the sleek colored glass buildings reign supreme though their old-world roots can be seen in the most peculiar places from the lamp post styled electric street light to the stone sidewalks. The old world architecture slowly returns the further from downtown you travel, however. It's here that magic thrives, it hums in every stone and can be felt in every breath. Often, newcomers to the city may become overwhelmed by such sensations but, eventually, it becomes an ever-present feeling that's hardly noticed.

Azrael
Only Fools Walk Where Angels Fear To Tread
There was something almost wholly satisfying about the scream that seemed to tear itself from the woman's lips as Azrael moved to relinquish his power only long enough to send her plummeting towards the floor. He knows that feeling far too well, that uncomfortable flip flopping of the stomach that seemed to rise in this moments you plummeted downwards. He had, after all, tested this very power out upon himself on more than one occasion and indeed in those early days of practice he had managed to drop himself from varying heights. Experiencing the very thing he subject the witch too now. It is merely fortunate for her that he has since mastered this side of is craft, halting her rapid descent in the last moment, preventing her from colliding against the floor and breaking something (as he himself had done). He is however, hardly above dropping her just a little, releasing his hold upon her entirely in that last moment to allow her to collide with the floor if only to make a point.
For several moments at least the woman seems to consider speaking once more, one golden eye of the Hunter resting upon her with something almost akin to anticipation, half willing to see just how daring the wretched woman might be inclined to be. It would be decidedly easy, after all, to hang her from the ceiling again if she chose to maintain her less then pleasant demeanour. This time, it seemed, the young witch had evidently rethought her previously biting attitude. She was, Azrael is sure, far more fortunate then she truly seemed to appreciate in having had him as the Council representative for this area. There were precious few among the Hunter ranks inclined to offer her a mere warning, the vast majority of their breed far more inclined to merely eliminate her on the spot- something Azrael is entirely assured he may well regret doing with this woman and yet he cannot bring himself to destroy her so...haphazardly. She had been warned in the least, it was all he could truly do for her in an effort to keep the councils gaze from her. If she chose to move against what he had told her then it was her own doing and her imminent death would be much by her own hand- rather than his.
"Fuck you too."
It is all he truly cares to offer her, a sharp snort erupting from within as she moves to pull herself upward at last. For several moments still he remained inclined to merely watch her as she made a notable effort to dust herself off and rearrange her clothing into something decently more presentable. It is only when she has finished such a task that Azrael makes any move to inquire about her name, one eye lifting ever so slightly at the rather short response he was met with, his own shoulders lifting into a decidedly callous shrug.
"I know your name, yes, I was merely curious to see how prone to lying you were, Elanora."
He affords her such a moniker upon the very end of his words, decided emphasis placed upon the calling before the faintest trace of amusement seems to longer upon his features though what exactly he seems to find so comical remains to be seen. He moves at least to lean away from the table he had taken residence upon, tossing the catalogue back atop it with haphazard care before moving to head for the door.
"I am assured we are done here, remember what you were told and we should have no reason to see each other again."
That, he is assured, would make the both of them decidedly happy- the man vanishing instantly but a moment later- the dull thud of the shop door closing the only true indication he had left at all.
