East

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.

I can't be around the Ark right now. It's too depressing. Raven and Tobias spend most of the time around Aiden's room, cuddling up close to each other and just drinking in their pack thoughts. I'm not a part of that bond so I can't share in that. I just feel like an outsider looking in. Sam seems like a nice girl and I'm sorry that she had to see that happen with Aiden. I can tell she must have loved him a lot.

I've been out patrolling pretty much every night. I find the bad creatures and put them down. I see the hunters and take them out too if they come after me. I intimidate the humans so they don't talk about me and I make friends with the ones that I save. I feel like I'm finally starting to make a difference in this town, even if I can't be a part of a pack to do that. I know that over time, I might be able to gain Tobias' trusts and become an official part of the Nightshade pack. I know that would make Raven happy but I keep asking myself, would that make me happy?

Raven will always be my best friend and Tobias was good to me once upon a time. It would mean never speaking to Edie again though and I actually think she's pretty cool. I could care less about Frost and after what he did to Aiden I believe he gets what he deserves but that man seems to be able to outsmart everyone and survive anything so I'll believe that when I see it. Do I want a pack or can I make a difference in another way? I just want to feel like I belong somehow.

Alexander gives me purpose. I will find out what we are eventually but until then, I get to enjoy his attention and know that he's never far away. Of course it's not enough to make a life.

I don't know what exactly makes me pause when I see the sign for the potion shop. I've never gone into one before. I don't even know what potions really do. I've never been curious enough to find out. I start walking toward the door even as a woman comes out of it with key in hand. I stop, biting my bottom lip as I watch her lock the door. At first I think about letting her walk away and not saying anything but something makes me step forward and clear my throat.

"Um, hi. Are you closing for the day? I was actually just about to go inside. What kinds of potions do you have?"
