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.

With one hundred floors and a 125-foot spire, the Starlight Tower rises high above the Sacrosanct skyline. More than just a landmark, the Starlight Tower offers a unique mix of restaurants, shops, and offices spaced throughout the building. Organized into nine verticle zones, each of which features a sky lobby and a light-filled garden atrium which merge the upscale interior with a faux landscaped exterior setting.
Henry waited patiently for Malia to meet him at the restaurant. He should have picked her up like a gentleman, but he was trying not to make it seem too much like a date. He had a lot on his plate and the last thing he needed was to make Malia think he was trying to start a romance with her. He could hardly keep his own love life in check. The very last thing he wanted to do was give Malia a run for her money. He wanted her to be happy. He wanted her to find someone that could give himself completely to her. Unless his relationship with Sterling ended (which he prayed it wouldn't), he couldn't give her that part of himself. And ever since he found out that Sterling was alive â€" he knew he couldn't give Malia anything more than his friendship.
As she came around the corner, he could feel his eyeballs popping out of his head. He feasted over her much like a dog does over fresh meat. Her dress hugged her curves in just the right ways. He couldn't help but travel up the line of her leg to the way the dress hugged her waist or her breasts. He could feel his desires stirring and he had to blink his eyes as she came to stand in front of him. "Damn...you clean up nice." If he wasn't trying to keep her at a distance, he would have suggested they simply skip dinner and go straight to dessert.
He cleared his throat nervously as he tried to think about anything other than how hot she looked tonight. Thankfully, she commented on the restaurant and he smiled with a light chuckle. "You'll do fine. You're getting good at this whole human thing." There we go...that's the Henry we all know and love.
He offered her his arm, expecting her to take it before he led her inside the restaurant. The hostess took them to a table nestled in the back of the restaurant, far away from the majority of the patrons. It was horribly romantic and he would have to take Sterling here one night. If they ever got intimate again, he was sure he could fool around with his boyfriend beneath the table and never get caught.
Once Malia was seated, he scooted into the booth across form her and picked up the menu. "Take a look and see if anything sounds interesting to you." He knew she had an interesting pallet. He thought about her love for cheese fries and he laughed. "Unfortunately, they don't have cheese fries." They had steaks, lobster, chicken, and quail â€" things she probably wasn't used to eating. He wasn't sure if she would like something on the menu or be willing to try something new.
